One more question...lighting?

I forgot about one other problem I was having with setting up a new corn snake enclosure. What am I supposed to use for lighting? Not for heating (I'll be using a UTH for that), just so I can view my snake in his enclosure. Day and "night" viewing, if possible.

I've been looking at reptile supply stores online and my local Petsmart, but all the reptile lighting devices are meant to supply heat as well.. I looked at one of the cheap aquarium hood lights, but it said on there for glass or acrylic tops only, no mention of metal screen tops.
 
A UTH is all you need, but some use a red light for viewing snake, just be aware they throw off heat so you have to watch temps.
