Grow Tents for Large Snakes?

Hey guys, I've been looking into different enclosures for housing my BCI once she outgrows the 4 x 2 x 2 custom enclosure I've built for her (She's a small girl right now so I have a while to plan). Since she's the only large reptile I plan on keeping I've been really focused on giving her the best possible care that I can, and I plan on upgrading her current enclosure once she reaches 5 - 6 feet or so but I've been having a hell of a time settling on what type of enclosure would be "best" for both the snake and my resources. I'd like to upgrade her to something at least 6 x 3 x 3 which is MUCH more expensive to buy and ship if I was to go for a pre-made plastic viv, and is a size that I feel would be hard for me to build out of wood myself. This leads me to the topic of this thread, is it a bad idea to use a grow tent for a large snake? Or any reptile for that matter? Weighing the pros / cons it seems like a very compelling option but I've seen very little resources detailing the use of them, and those that do use them are usually housing large lizards and not snakes. Does anyone have any insight or experience with this?
