First, it would be easier if you said exactly what was going in the cage. There can bea world of difference there. If it is a large snake, then unless you use trees, plants will gtet destroyed, but you can try. I would keep them in pots, maybe you can rotate them out to heal. Any substrate you use is going to get replaced fairly frequently with the fecal and urinary habits of especially larger boas. Cypress mulch, shredded coconut, plain soil with no fertilizer are all options, though the question is, how much time do you want to spend cleaning up. Taller cages are nice, but harder to heat well. The pool idea is great, just make sure you can sanitize it easily. Other than those concerns, sounds like a fun project.
