A corn snake can live his entire life in a 20 gallon tank so I would go for that.
A 10 gallon will do for a year or two but you would eventually need to replace it.

>>>>You want a water bowl big enough for your snake to completely fit in.
They like to soak on occaision and a larger water bowl helps with humidity.
They sell water bowls that have openings in the sides. These make exellent hides also.
