I would go with a 30 gallon tank or a V221 vision cage. You can get a vision cage at LLL Reptile & Supply. Hope This Helps Scott Glover

yeah I was actually considering the Vision 322 or 332 models.. which one do you think is better there?

I would go with the Vision 322 model, perfect for a showing off your ball python. Thanks Scott Glover

do I need the heat lamp enclosure in the #332?

Yes do use the heat lamp, make sure the heat from the heat lamp stays about 86-88"F in the air. If you do not want to use the the heat lamp buy a regular 60 watt bulb to light your snake cage up, and get
1 foot of 11 inch flex-watt heat tape and a dimmer so that you can heat the bottom of the cage to about 86-88"F. Thanks Scott Glover
