That thermometer will tell you air temp.

Red or black bulbs can be used for any hours. The blue day bulbs bulbs should only be used for daytime hours. They can throw your snake of its day/night cycle.

A forty gallon tank is suggested for an adult and they are 36x18, so something near that should work fine. Lowe's has a pretty good selection of tubs.

I would say you will probably need a sixty watt bulb but that is something you will have to play with. Using a light stand or a dimmer should make it easy to dial in.
