Corn Snake + different snake

Question
Hello, I have a small corn snake.  I'm thinking about getting another snake and wondering what I should get - I would like them to live together.  I was thinking about getting another corn snake (I know they can live together if they are around the same size).  But I was wondering if there are any other types of snakes the can live with a corn snake... Rat snake, or Milk snake?

Thanks
Alex

Answer
Hi Alex
I highly recommend you get another corn snake.  Milksnake (same family as kingsnakes) will eat your corn snake.  A ratsnake might harm him also.  Definitely stick with a corn snake. And if you get one of each sex you can even breed them since they are easy to breed. Good luck.
