The biggest thing I would keep in mind is that this snake could very well be your snake. All the interest in the world at 7 years old could fade pretty quickly. You're looking at 20+ years with the snake.
So maybe your kid loses interest, maybe goes off to college and can't bring the snake, etc...
Just be prepared for it to be your snake. Hopefully your boys passion continues to grow, but don't bank on it.
