I need help choosing what to do!!

Ok im new with snakes so bare with me here, but just yesterday I've found a tiny red bellied snake under a wood pile we have. Would it be a good idea to keep it? I've done all of my research on the little guy and I know what he's supposed to eat and stuff like that, but since he's so small and won't get very big at all I was wondering if I could keep it as a first timer. I know a better first snake is a corn snake but I can't get those anywhere near where I live. So please let me know asap! I really want to keep him, but if I have to let it go I will thank you.
