Some advise.
Don't get in over your head. Make sure you have steady predictable income before moving out. Find a roommate. Preferably one of your friends. It really helps with costs and having a bad roommate sucks.
Make sure where you move allows cages animals so you can get a snake.
Even with a friend, make sure your roommate(s) understands their part. All expenses are shared evenly. Keep a spreadsheet to track who has paid what when and keep in post on your fridge so everyone can see. Keeps everyone honest.
Don't make a mess of the place you move in to. I'ts just good manners. And you can get your deposit back when you leave.
Good luck.
