I have a baby cal king in a 10 gallon (20in L, 10in W, 12in H.) She's about 21ish inches. I know I can keep her in there for a long time, but I'm about to get some money and won't have enough for a bigger tank in a long time. Thanks in advance.

When do I upgrade my snakes tank size?

Buy her the biggest one you can afford now so you don't have to worry about an upgrade in the future. Make the setup with multiple hides and a temp gradient and she will be good to go well into the future. A larger enclosure with smaller microhabitats will work fine regardless of some people saying snakes can get "lost" in a large enclosure. They come from the "largest" enclosure that can be provided if you think about it realistically.
