Hmm... where do I start. I'll just rant a little bit.
1) No petsmart/petco. Overpriced and generally not healthy animals. Get from a breeder.
2) You'll need specific temperatures. Approx. 80* on the cool side and approx. 90* on the warm side. To achieve these temperatures, you'll need to insulate your tank and have the heating source on a thermostat.
3) You'll need two, identical, tight fitting hides for your snake.
4) The tank should not be too large.
5) You're aiming for 50-60% humidity.
I don't get why BPs are beginner snakes. The cool spot of 80* is already hard to achieve in a glass cage and other snakes, like corn snakes, can be kept at temperatures in the high 60s on the cool side.
