  1. Hello; have you considered an Irian Jaya Carpet Python or a Woma Python? Both species match your requirements quite well, are generally very docile, are interesting looking, relatively low maintenance, and are in the size range you are looking for.

    Here are care/information sheets on both species; in case you are interested. :)

    I hope this helps, and if you have any further questions at all on the subject; please feel free to message me and I will be more than happy to assist you. :)

    Good luck!

    EDIT:

    Oh! if you'd like the over-all look and disposition of a Boa Constrictor but with a smaller size, and easier to accommodate care and maintenance needs; I would highly recommend a Hog Island boa. They are the smallest (averages four to six feet, though it isn't common for them to exceed five) and in my opinion the prettiest member of the Boa Constrictor family, and they have all of the great aspects of the Colombian Boa Constrictors and very few of the bad. :)

    Here is a care sheet on them; if you are interested.
