Corns are faster and skinnier, and as babies they are teeny tiny; so they really require much more of your immediate attention while they out, until they calm down. A BP is a bit easier as a TV or desk buddy.
The flip side though is that corn snakes can tolerate lower temps and humidity; depending on where you set your thermostat in your house, your TV room, office, or whatever could well be a temperature that would be fine for a corn snake to hang out in but pretty cold for a BP. It's more of a project to handle your snake if you have to crank up the heat and then wait for it to get warm first.
I'd agree .

My Corn snakes are very friendly but once they're out of the viv and being handled they never stop moving , but like holding a hamster

All my ( six )Royals / Ball pythons are tremendously calm and friendly and each one will happily stay on my lap until I get fed up so they're much more relaxing to hold for any length of time imho .
