    I don't really like glass aquariums for larger species because they are difficult to get the snake out of. Reaching in from above can be problematic, and difficult to clean and regulate.
    I recommend getting something like this with a shelving unit and some climbing apparatus for an adult carpet.

    I plan on getting the Terrestrial T10 (48L x 24D x 15H)
    The 'Carpet Cage' under specialty cages would also work. They need a little more height and climbing so the extra shelf is a must.

    You can keep the younger animals in tubs until they get big enough for an AP cage. Just make sure the tubs have a bit of height and climbing option.
