I agree with everything gerry said. Hondurans are the largest milks commonly found in the pet industry - no question about it. Just because there's a maximun size recorded, doesn't mean the snakes usually get to that size. Very few people have seen a 6 six foot Corn Snake or a 8 foor plus Black Rat Snake. In most cases these snakes are about half that size.

In my opinion a 20 gallon long is too small. I've been keeping and breeding Hondurans for more than 20 years. I think somewhere around 4 square feet of floor space is good for a large adult. If you're using a fish tank, a 40 gallon is a good size.
