My first snake was a gopher snake, but I had plenty of garter snakes soon after - and you are right, they are fairly easy to care for and can make good first snakes.

Gopher/pine/bull snakes also can make good first snakes, though my only experience with them is Pacific Gophers, and they could be really mean if collected as adults.
