I was wondering if you guys new anything about this spider.

Its a Black-footed Spider, MITURGIDAE (CLUBIONIDAE), sac spider.
I want to know how to house it and what it eats. All info will be appreciated.

actually it's Chiracanthium mildei, and they will take down 10mm crickets with no problem at all.

Thanks for the correction, and i looked at your site, turns out i had already seen it, thanks anyway. Your probably wondering why i would want one of these. Its because my moms scared of spiders and other insects, so this way i can say that it was already in the house. Its funny, my mom likes snakes and my dad hates them, and my dad like spiders and my mom hates them, lol. Thanks, Daniel.
