Care info needed for Japanese ratsnakes

I'm getting a Kunasir Japanese ratsnake very soon, and I'm having trouble finding any specific care information. All I can find is that they are supposedly "easy to care for." Does anyone have suggestions as far as temps and humidity?

If you can't find any info on them in particular, research the area they are native too as to how hot/cold/humid etc. it is in their native region. Mark

They're very easy to keep - I keep my pair in the same setup type as all my ratsnakes, but they like cooler temperatures, you'll find them in the waterdish a lot in the summer. They can act a little weird (my male is big on the crawling backwards thing, the female not so much) and they are prone to prolonged fasting (again, male more than female for me)
But they are gorgeous and a lot of fun. Try feeding them whole eggs.
