I'm begining to think you should buy a book. It would save us all a lot of time (lol). Sunbeams require the same care as the Pipe snakes (posted below) except they are mouse eaters.

For general info on any of these snakes (habitat size etc.) a google search will easily find them.

As I mentioned before, I am writing a book so I will do searches on them eventually.. I am finding every piece of information on them I can. I just ask here so I can here what people on this forum know about them. Maybe from personal experiences, or they know something about them I do not. The reason I am on a burrowing species theme is because I am working my way through the Animal book by the Smithsonian Institution and the first snakes they have in it are boas and pythons and these species happen to be the first ones.
