Those would be fine,as long as they are secure. You have to make sure even the smallest crack or spacing is somehow blocked from a snake escaping. Vison cages are notorious for having a 1/4 space between the two pieces of glass, a small snake could easily fit between the two. I personally prefer front open cages, but it depends on the keeper. Neo's are my favorite.
After you're set up, just make sure your room is secure, if you're worried about them getting out. They are snakes after all, and it can happen. It shouldn't, but does. It's better to be safe than sorry. Make sure you have door sweeps, fill any holes or cracks in the walls and floors, and cover any vents with screen wire. Keep the area clean and clutter-free, give yourself ample room and an exit opposite of where you will be keeping the snakes, and keep stuff off the floor. You don't want to trip or be backed into a corner by a snake that makes it's way to the ground. Label each cage with the common and scientific name and have a bite protocol on the outside of the door, one by your keys, and one by the nearest phone. And, if you have kids or alot of company, make sure the room can be locked AND each individual cage is locked.

There is absolutely nothing about keeping hots that is rocket science, as long as you are responsible and take the REQUIRED safety precautions.
Good luck and post some pics when done.
