You would be surprised at how large a meal your snake can take. I follow the guideline of feeding a meal (rat) that is just slightly larger in circumference than the belly of my snake. My female is a bit larger than yours and she takes 2-3 small rats per week.
I have used RodentPro and their service is good. Its a bit on the pricey side because they dry ice and overnight the package to you. But if its your only recourse, they are good.
