You need experience keeping an aggressive snake--a REALLY aggressive snake--before you should even remotely consider getting anything even mildly venomous.

Get yourself an Amazon Tree Boa, or something. They're often used as 'hots trainers'. If you can't avoid being bitten by the boa, you should never keep a hot snake. Taming it doesn't count either--treat it just like a hot, and never free-handle it.

In short--please don't do this. You are not ready. Maybe you will be, eventually, but you are NOT ready NOW.
i agree i mean its pretty dangerous if you are not careful even if you are careful!
