First off, we need to know how you lag to set up your snake: tank/tub/PVC enclosure, how you plan to heat the enclosure, how you plan on measuring temperatures/humidity.
Without knowing those things it is hard to say anything specific.
Some basic things to remember, they need a temperature gradient of 88-92 on the hot side and 78-82 on the cool side. they need humidity levels between 40% and 60% normally, and between 60% and 80% during shed. A ball python less than a year old should eat every 4-5 days, and a ball python older than 1 year should eat every 7-10 days. At any age they need to eat rodents that weigh 15% of the snakes body weight (So you will need a scale that measures in grams as rodents are measured in grams)
