I agree with Vanan. If you want to start with a colubrid, the Corn Snake is the way to go.
They come in many different colour and pattern combinations, and are hardy and easy to keep.
I find that Milk Snakes tend to be a bit more skittish and are usually extremely shy.
Cheers, and good luck with whatever you may decide upon!

You really can't go wrong with either of those. It all comes down to personal choice, what appeals to you visually. There's always kings... =P

Corns are the best starter snakes, period.

The best starter snake is the snake you like most and will stick with for 10+ years.

My vote is for corn too. My milksnake wasn't nearly my first and I am glad. He is shy, fast moving, skittish and likes to bite and crap on me. LOL. My cornsnakes have all been either quite agreeable to handle since day one, or have become used to handling within a couple short weeks.
