>>I was wondering what's the best snake of this kind. It also seems the best snakes always need humid environments. What about snakes that like 75 - 85 degrees and 30% or so humidity? I mean snakes that make good handling pets, not ones that constantly run away when you're holding them. That's why pythons are so great they can just chill with you.

No matter the ambient temp any snake deserves and requires a basking spot. I would think if you don't want to mess with humidity go with a kenyan sand or rosy boa. Most any of the more native stuff is gonna be more active then you want sounds like.
