Welcome!!
Everyone has pretty much covered everything but I wanted to chime in and say that I recommend a PVC enclosure over glass. About a month ago my Animal Plastics T10 finally came and I am incredibly pleased with it! It holds in humidity extremely well and the temps fluctuate way less. Plus I have more peace of mind having sliding glass doors with a lock rather than the screen top with a hatch that my old 20 GAL had. Ultimately though it just depends on your preferences and what works best for you and your snake.
Also, I respectfully disagree about having to "work up" to a ball python. In my opinion it makes no sense to spend time, money, and effort on a snake that you aren't passionate about just for the sake of getting experience. If you want a ball python- get a ball python!! As long as you do PLENTY of research (read all the stickies, ask important questions before the snake arrives, have the enclosure completely setup and ready to go, etc) you will do fine! I got my ball python last year after having ZERO reptile experience but I had done months and months of heavy research so I haven't had any issues with her. In my experience they are a pretty easy species to keep.
You're definitely off to a great start so far! This forum is a valuable source of information so don't hesitate to ask if you have more questions
Thank you for the warm welcome and all this info
