Intermediate snake suggestions please

Carpet Python. More size, more "snake". Can become puppy dog tame, but just a bit more challenging. Fun for Display

Blood Python, Sumatran shorttail python or Borneo shorttail python. They get a bad rap for "nasty" dispositions, but that was from way back when most were imports. If you get a nice, captive bred one from a reputable breeder that makes sure not to send the "odd" wild child, you can have a great, fun snake. They are quite different, but I find them beautiful. Very terrestrial snakes, not much climbing. Very, very powerful for their compact bodies.

Redtail Boa male. Female can get really quite big. Unless you get one from a locality that stays smaller.

Green Tree Python. Awesome display snake. Not so much for handling. I could handle my two just fine, they never hissed nor struck at me, but they are more for "looks" then a awful lot of hands on. That said, they make the most gorgeous display snakes and are truly living art.

Russian Ratsnakes. Actually quite easy to keep, but tons of fun. The only snakes I've come across that really seem to want to interact. They are nosy buggers, always interested in what you are doing. Can be super fun for kids. Can be kept in a rather large cage as they like to climb. They are just kind of hard to find. Usually in the spring some people sell them.
