Many of the colubrids can be some of the easiest snakes to take care of. They generally don't need extremely high temperatures, average humidities, etc. Many feed very well (my gopher snakes never seem to get enough!). If you get neonate snakes ask the breeder/seller if they are feeding on pinkie mice. Some varieties, like gray band kingsnakes, are lizard eaters in the wild and even captive born specimens can have that genetic food imprint. It's not impossible to get them to eat pinkies eventually, but takes a bit of patience and strategy. Corn, king and milk snakes I've found the majority to be very docile. There's always the odd ball exception, just like with boas but if they are captive bred you shouldn't have any temperment problems.
