Also, as you mentioned, there are hundreds of corn snake morphs that are all pretty cheap, especially when compared to some ball python ones
Since this is your first snake, corns are more forgiving of error and hardier overall; and remember, you dont have to stop at just one!  You can always get your black eyed leucistic BP later down the road 
BTW, have you looked into Leucistic Texas Rat snakes at all?

I was looking at those but I've seen The they are relatively temperamental as opposed to corns which is extremely similar, I suppose it depends on the snake itself though c:
