BP's are an example, but there are also Spotted Pythons, Childrens Pythons, Hognoses, and many colubrids. None of these snakes need a humidity system, but in my opinion, buy a plastic bin (sterilite etc.) and drill some air holes in the sides. Make sure it has a locking or tight snap-on style lid. This is perfect for the snakes I listed and you only need to mist every once in awhile. Maybe once or twice a week depending on your substrate.

None of the snakes you listed get to 4 feet. I have bred the spotteds before and they are of the larger one's in that family of pythons.
You made some good points though later on.
For docile snakes in the 4 - 6 foot range WITH colour and no humidity I would consider a gopher, bull or pine snake. In particular the gopher and bull snakes. They have plenty of morphs and are easily kept. Problem is sometimes they aren't so nice no matter what.
Otherwise, honestly, get a corn snake. Don't look at it like a "basic" snake because I can tell that's what you're doing. You want the "cool" factor. Corns are plainly just awesome to keep.
