If you read down this first page i'm sure you will find at least 2 threads addressing this exact topic. the answer is ALWAYS no. Rat snakes are not good cage mates, and especially not in such a small enclosure. How long would you say they are, by the way?
the older one will make the smaller one threatened, and could possibly eat it. then you fall into the general things... if you see runny stools then you dont know which snake to treat, one snake gets a mite/parasite the other does also... double vet bills all around. also you have the problem of breeding if they're opposite sex, and even before they're really old enough. this could leave your female egg bound/dead.
ugh...do a SEARCH! ----- Chondros and colubrids... my 2 favorite types of snakes!
