Question Homemade Enclosure Help

Hello,
So I have a home made enclosure that was used for my bearded dragon, I'm turning it into a Corn Snake enclosure though.

I have one problem that I'm trying to figure out, the bottom is made of some really thick wood so there is no way I could put a heat pad under there and the heat will come through, let alone all heat pads say do not use with wood!

So I've heard some really bad things about light, not going to use them. How about the substrate heaters or those rock heaters that have no hot spots? Anyone familiar with these things?

I've attached a picture of the enclosure when it was still being used for my Beardie. It's been changed a bit now though, the lights have been removed, I'm planning on just using a normal lightbulb for a light source (no heat). All holes have been sealed up and the tiles have been removed and replaced with newspaper (for baby snake) and later I'll be adding Aspen.

Give me ideas!
Thanks!
