Better yet: corn, rat (some kinds), king (some kinds) & gopher/bull snakes all are easy too. AND they require much less heat to be healthy & feeding. I'd put corn snakes at the top of the list for "easy"- as long as you don't start with a newly-hatched (tiny!) one.
Corn snakes stay a modest size, they're curious & easy to handle, usually very docile but very eager eaters of frozen-thawed (dead) prey- no heating of their food is required (just fully thaw). Bonus: they're very pretty, & come in many colors. Oh, & they're very available & not expensive unless you choose something rare & "cutting edge".
