>>A ten gallon tank with a screened lid, a undertank mat heater. works great.I also use these locks that are 1.99 that are made for all size tanks.they clamp the lid tight ..

The only thing with the ten gallon is you have to be careful with the undertank heater, because if it gets too cold the snake will just sit on the heater and burn itself. This happened to my first snake when I first got her years ago.
If you can find a 20L, go with that. It'll work for a couple years, at least, until the snake hits a few feet, and then you can bump up to, say, a 55 gallon. This way you also have the 20L as a backup tank, just in case, because you never know what can happen.
If you can, also set up the tank with a heat lamp. I like red bulbs because if I need to I can leave them on at night, and since the snakes are in my bedroom it's not keeping me up either.
