Conflicting advice. HELP!

An enclosure cannot be too be unless it isn't properly filled with hides and cover. You can use pretty much anything for cover, too. I like cardboard tubes for low humidity enclosures. For cover, I'll lay out paper towels or strips of newspaper over things, to simulate something like leaf litter.

All that being said, you don't have to go out and buy a huge enclosure. A baby corn snake will be very happy in a 20 gallon tank or similarly sized plastic tub.
