No, it's not a good idea. There are sooo many reasons not to put two snakes in one tank, and not a single good reason to keep them together.
1. King snakes ARE cannibalistic, they can and probably will eat each other.
2. If one gets sick, they both get sick. That means two vet bills, twice the cost.
3. If one poops or regurgitates you won't know whose it is.
4. Snakes are solitary animals, having two together can lead to stress and competition for food, leading to more stress, which can lead to or make them more susceptable to illness, and that takes you back to the two vet bills idea.
And so on...and so on...
Good luck.
