A. That isn't enough money. Well, it's enough to buy and house an eensy baby snake, but large snakes are expensive to house and feed. And you have to do it right or you have huge vet bills.
B. It takes YEARS to start making money on snakes, IF you're lucky and hard working.

NO offense but it sounds like you're really not ready to be in the snake breeding business just yet. Read up on what it takes to house, care for, feed and breed snakes as well as the price the different species of snakes out there and then see how far that $110 will really take you. You've got a lot of homework ahead of you first.
