Boy, if you do that try to make it a design feature of the home somehow. Maybe like a large walk-in closet or storage area or something? That way you can just frame it out and drywall as normal (although maybe use greenboard) and then laminate plastic over that?
I saw a condo where somebody had done something like this but put in an entire glass wall and made it into a solarium. Very nice and I think you should at least consider that.
Regarding heat, I would probably use a large radiant heat panel, 220V if you can swing it, for ambient and then another radiant heat panel installed below a shelf to provide a hot spot down low. That's the pricey option. There are cheaper choices but you'd have to take steps to keep the snake protected from them.
This sounds like a very cool project.
