Ive heard a 4x2 but that seems big for a snake they gets 2-4 feet for males

That's he big mine is. They are so fat that they need more room. Rule of thumb is you want to give them as much room as a Burmese twice their size. With Borneo or Bloods you want a cage at least as long as it.

^^^ They may not get very long, but they are chuberific. I've seen just normal sized males as big around a skinny chick's thigh. That doesn't take into account a big female. With that kind of girth, there is still a need for decent square footage. I currently have mine in a 4x2 but she's a juvie/sub adult so I might increase that depending on her eventual adult size.
