Most people use rubbermaids in rack systems, with the top being covered by the bottom shelf of the next level up (check out my pic below). I do keep a cornsnake I own in a rubbermaid type enclosure, and use the lid that came with it (and heat it from below with a heat pad). BPs have more of a heat rerquirement than corns do, so I'm not sure what's best for you. In addition to having to heat your tub, you'll also have to escape proof it. Any self-respecting BP would not stand to be confined in a rubbermaid unless it was "fortified".
