well a corn snake IS a rat snake. A corn is Elaphe guttata, a black rat snake is Elaphe Obsoleta.
Most all north american rat snakes are the same. You will get into more challanging rat snakes with more varation when you move to Asian rat snakes, such as beauties. Beautiful snakes (as their names infer), but are more challanging. I'd highly reccomend a black rat snake.
Look over in the classifieds for anything by Mike Jollif. Or email him at thesnakemachine@aol.com if you don't see any of his ads over there. I got both mine, hopefully this summer a third, from him. He is very knowledgeable about black rats, breeds a multitude of color morphs, and i'd highly reccomend him. ----- Chondros and colubrids... my 2 favorite types of snakes!
