How about a Pacific Dwarf Boa (Candoia carinata carinata)? Mine is docile, she'll probably max out at 2-2.5 feet, and she's as thick as a marker. They are lizard eaters, and mine did quite well on anoles for 6 months before I switched her over to mice for economic and convenience issues.

They require very little space, and you could build a beautiful tropical vivarium with live plants in your 35 gallon, if you wanted to put that much effort forward. Only issue with them is that they require lower temps (76-82 max) and higher humidity (70-80%)than most snakes, but once you get the hang of it it's really quite simple.

They're a little tough, but not impossible to find.
