Western hognoses are fantastic snakes, easy to keep, as easy as a cornsnake. dont need much room, can be very active at times, pretend to be agressive but its all bluff(unless you smell like food)
Best snake for beginner so long as established feeders before buying.

But agree with eggman royals are best of all(so long as get a good un and can cope when they decide to fast)
thanks

Get some hoggies, great feeders usually, great tempraments, manageable sizes and really nice animals.
If your into morphs there are a 'few' to work with.

Second after them I would say get royals, get good CB ones and you don't usually have a problem with feeding.
