To decide what your snake needs basically you have to know what you have as far as the numbers. I know we can't tell you to run out to WalMart and grab a digital thermometer (somehow I doubt you've been overrun with WalMarts as we are here LOL). If you can locate, however, a digital temperature and humidity measuring device you need to figure out what the temperature is at both ends of the enclosure and the overall humidity of the enclosure. Then you can make the adjustments necessary.

This is what our Acu-Rites look like. Basically they are intended for non-snakekeeping uses and we've just discovered they fit our needs for a very reasonable cost.

With this particular unit, if you push a button it switches from Time, Temp and Humidity to IN TEMP (what the unit itself reads), OUT TEMP (what the probe reads) and HUMIDITY so works really well in a snake enclosure application. Hopefully you have something similar available in your home country.

Your snake also needs a safe substrate. Again I'm unsure of what your local availability is but things like aspen bedding, newspaper, papertowelling work great. Avoid anything with pine or cedding bedding in it...that's not good for your snake's health. Ball pythons like to hide so one hide for each side of the enclosure. Hides should be barely bigger than your snake's size when coiled up so the snake basically can touch all sides of the hide, dark and easy to clean in case the snake uses his hide for a bathroom. Often things like a simple plastic cereal bowl work beautifully - just melt or cut an entrance in them and you've got a lovely snake hide.

If possible pictures of the snake and the enclosure would be helpful so we could help you with specific things.
