On my corn snake enclosure build, i used a pro rep heat matt on the bottom, with an STC-1000 thermostate to control the temp put the sensor on top of the heat matt,
i have used STC-1000 from ebay there £10.69, i have not had any problems with my snakes, or my hatchlings i even built my incubator using an STC-1000 to control the temp.
my enclosure is 5ftx3ftx1,1/2ft,
Be carful of any sorts of paint, i used acrylic waterbased paint with a low VOC Waterproof sealer.
Hope this help's good look with your build.
