I'd take the snake back to the pet store, inform the manager of the employee AND the incorrect advice given, and demand a replacement.

Are these snakes fragile and difficult to keep?
Corns are probably the most popular snake in the pet trade because of the husbandry "latitude" they provide.

Sorry for your loss. Know that it's not your fault, given the wrong information you were received.
