You could try plywood as long as you coat it with polyurthane. That's what I'm going to do and its only going to cost me around 30 bucks. And then, in a year or two, I'll go for a plastic rack....

EDIT: also, my rack is going to hold 6 snakes, and it's going to be 42" tall, and 38" wide... 5' x 4' is gonna hold ALOT of snakes...lol.
Here i see them way cheaper than that!! Like (I think) 10$ a 4x8 (I think) of MDF..Alittle more for the mell...im just not quite sure...I may have to run to home depot today!!
