First, I would suggest against your idea of half water. Although your snake may spend lots of time in her water this could be a sign that your humidity is too low. Additionally there is no need to have such a large water source and having one will require the cage to be significantly larger.
Second, I would suggest simplifiying your design greatly. Make all sides solid wood and use sliding plexiglass doors. You dont really need to use a frame if using 1/2 or 3/4 inch plywood unless you want to make a false celing for heat lights. Depending on how you plan on heating it (radiant heat pannel, heat tape etc.) you most likely will have less trouble forgeting about the frame.
Something along these lines will be much easier for a new builder to make (and make look good).
