They do seem like docile and intelligent animals, but b/c of size and my inexperience with snakes, I doubt I will get one at this point. But I do have a while to make up my mind.

In that case a Woma Python may be a good choice. Mine is super docile and a real joy to handle.
I've always wondered why King Snakes are recommended as a beginner snake. They are bitey. They musk. I watched one crap on a person for 20 second straight. Quite disgusting! They are temperamental little guys especially when young. I'm not saying they can't be great snakes...I just haven't met one yet who was.
