I've always liked Vita-Lite. But any good mimic of the visible light spectrum should be fine.

IMHO, white light during the day portion of the photoperiod and no light during the night portion of the photoperiod. In the wild, a corn snake's temperature normally drops to what humans consider room temperature at night.
