So I'm having difficulty finding one the right size for my snake on amazon, could someone help me find a RUB (or other cheaper variants) for a 3 foot snake?

The floorspace for the 33L, 50L, and 64L are all the same and a little bigger than my adult rack, so if you want to give lots of climbing room I'd go for the 64L. Otherwise the 50L does still have a little room for smaller branches and decorations.

I think I'll go for the 50 litre, unless I get another branch.tree for the second snake to climb on, thanks.
christ these are so nicely cheap.
On top of that, would you be able to suggest any heat mats or things like that?
 
I think most of the brands available to you aren't found much in the US, so I don't know how much help I can be. I've used Zoo Med mats, just added foil to the adhesive size instead of sticking it on permanently. They definitely require a thermostat, since they can get over 45ºC, some nearly 50ºC. I have another small mat right now that holds perfect temperature without a thermostat, but I couldn't tell you the brand. I'd just browse your options on amazon and check out the reviews.

I see, would I need anything else other than the thermostat?
Also does the matt need to cover all of the floor space, or just like half of it?
 
The mat should only cover about 1/4 of the viv to create a warm side and cool side. The water bowl should be on the opposite end, since warm water is a haven for bacteria. I'd also buy a cheap (but not too cheap...I learned the hard way) soldering iron to poke nice clean holes in the sides of the tub. Otherwise you should have the rest of the basics. All you need to put a corn in a tub is just the tub itself, heat mat, thermostat, water bowl, substrate, and hides. Everything else is pretty much optional.
 
I have a couple of these heat mat/thermostat combos that I like very much. (I heat 2 snake rubs with this size mat). There is a clicking sound when the thermostat shuts the matt off, just so ya know. Idk if all of kinds do, but this one does.
