My vote for a 1st snake is a kingsnake. Most aren't squirmy or biteful as hatchlings, and they get pretty docile. Most stay around 3-5 feet. I recently got hooked on Eastern Kings, but I have Graybands that are awesome. Pyro Knoblochis are nice and so are Pyro Pyros. Thayeri (variable Kings are nice too) Any of the kings mentioned by others are also nice. I don't know of a bad one, but sometimes you get unlucky. Derek
