To revisit the original question eight years later- I still am not interested in keeping venomous snakes, although I am happy that there are people who do. I hope we, the herp community, retain that right.
I might like to keep heloderms of some sort- but really I'd rather a friend kept them and I could just go visit.

I picked N. annulifera for a few reasons. They are known to have a mellower temperament as they age and I really like the look of them. They are a slightly heavier build than some of the other Najas. They feed like they are a rat snake. I knew just from my collection of Asian Ratsnakes that I wanted something with similar traits. Diurnal and active. Najas fit that bill, they are very curious and attentive in general.
I'm hoping to add a few more in the future.
In no order:
N. nivea
N. siamensis
N. pallida
N. haje legionis
