Well, yes this is asked quite often.
In my opinion, it's tough to go wrong with one of the many types of cornsnake that are available nowadays. Most of them are VERY affordable, they are simple to maintain(with just a few basic things to remember), many patterns and colors to choose from, and don't get too large(average approx. 4 feet), and don't usually bite or chew on you like some other individuals of some of the other species can be noted for at times.
Of course there are many other types of snakes that make great captives as well, there is no doubt about that, but in my opinion a corn is simply a great "beginner" snake. Then as more experience is gained with time, other snakes can easily be added to the collection as more things are learned and experienced.
