Co-Habitation? Best "second snake"?

I have a 48x28x32 landscaped vivarium as the centrepiece of my living room, currently occupied by a 6 month old Brazilian Rainbow Boa (about 24" long) who is currently being 'socialized'. She is very pretty but seldom comes out of the hide in the daylight.

I am thinking of getting another snake, one that's easier to handle. I have looked at an Iran Jaya and I am going to look at a Ball tonight. Both snakes are a lot bigger than my BRB so the BRB would get moved to a smaller home and the bigger snake would get the big vivarium.

Then I wondered if a smaller snake, like a Corn, could share the vivarium with the BRB without one of them trying to eat the other? I have never tried co-habiting snakes before and have NO IDEA how or if snakes get along with each other

The IJ is attractive in that it would be the better "display snake" and probably spend more time out and about where people can see it but I suspect the Ball would be much more handle-able.

Thoughts? Ideas? Suggestions?
