Jade, there are three sub-species of Checkered, but you're only likely to come across one in the UK... Thamnophis marcianus marcianus. It's fine to keep a small group of these together, as long as they are of similar size.
They are average sized Garters (usually) around 36" would be a good size one. I've always found them to be very good feeders.

Re: hi
T. ordinoides would be a good choice in that case.... But if you can find any in the UK, let me know, I've been looking for ages!
