I'd say a corn snake is your best bet. They're well priced, well tempered, & easy to care for. Plus, they come in just about any color you could want. There are tons of caresheets online, as well as The Corn Snake Manual, which I hear is a great book for corn snake owners. Good luck w/ whatever snake you choose to get.

Great starters: Cornsnakes, milksnakes (especially hondurans), garters, spotted pythons, ball pythons. There are others. You really cant beat a corn though for ease of care.

I would highly recommend Corns/Kings and Milks. All very good snakes for the beginner and old pro alike.
Good luck

Well I agree a cornsnake would be a good choice , they are well priced and there are numerous morphs. As adults they are a nice size , easy to care for and easy to handle . Rat snakes , milks ,kings , spotted pythons and ball pythons all would be good to . They are all easy to care for and stay at a nice size . Do your research and maybe try to meet a few different snakes to see what kind you like .Good luck

good choice going with the ball. i for one prefer boas and pythons to a colubrid anyday. you may have some trouble getting it to eat as i know they can be picky eaters but otherwise they are great snakes
