I'm not entirely sure if THIS goes here, but, what the hey!

I'm considering purchasing a pair of African house snakes if I can find them at the local show this weekend. As far as care, I was thinking that I could put them in a 31" x 13" x 6" rubbermaid bin with some holes for air, and a replaceable barrier for off-breeding season separation. Would this be ok? Can they live at room temp? *which is around 78 in my room*
