You could probably even persuade the local group of 12 year old boys to go find you a grass snake for free or a plate of cookies...

M$Keep in mind, though, that “less high maintenance” does not mean that they aren’t still difficult to care for… because they are. It may seem like snakes are an easy pet to care for because they don’t require any play time. Snakes are very picky and require their habitat to be “just so” in order to thrive. Temperature and moisture levels must fall within a very specific range, and feeding them too often or too little will make them sick. You have to know how and when to handle them (for example, you shouldn’t handle a snake when it’s shedding).
In short, a snake might not be the best choice for a first pet.
