My first snake was a scarlet king snake. They are smaller than corns and I imagine they could be fast if they wanted to but they are very calm. It never tried to slither away or bit and was easy to feed. A lot of people say they are problem feeders because babies may not take mice. Mine thrived on lightly dusted crickets, earthworks, and roaches though. I think they are pretty close to the perfect first pet snake. This is all just my opinion based on my experiences with them though.
