Very docile, easy to take care of, and I have only been bitten once (because I was being retarded holding a mouse in front of him).

Sorry man, but that is bad advice. There is a specific way to do sex probing with sterile tools. Using a finger could easily injure an animal and some species vary in the depth of males and females. Males are often actually deeper than females.
This is a general article about the process. It has good advice, but I would not suggest doing it without someone who has good practice to demonstrate then oversee your first attempts.
http://www.vpi.com/publications/determining_the_sex_of_snakes
There are other safe ways of testing for sex in snakes too.
I've raised and bred snakes and geckos since 1992. If anyone wants actual advice you are welcome to PM me.

I recommend buying a snake from a local "captive born" reptile dealer. There are lots of reptile stores, I would avoid buying any animal from Petco or a chain store, imo.
I'd never own a snake though. Not very fond of reptiles. I used to be as a kid but now I hate the fuckers. I almost got a bearded dragon but even that was too much. Id rather have a dog or even a cat if a dog isnt an option

Petco might be the absolute worst offender when it comes to the treatment of animals by chain stores.
Snakes that have been captive bred in your home country have a much better chance of survival and are a more sustainable option for the species. Some snake importers have horrific trafficking practices as well as gather animals in ways that demolish populations.
I will try to stay off the soap box and suggest if you really are interested to do some web searches.

Its cool. That kind of stuff comes up all the time at the local herpetological groups. TV shows constantly short cut information or pass on wrong information in a rush to produce material.

Nah, it goes further than just a trendy or anti-trendy response. I have personally caught them doing some crazy shit and just plain avoid them now. I wrote 4 letters to their HQ and when they never responded I gave up.
In many ways the reptile trade suffers the same issues that chain dog stores do because of the puppy mills they rely on.
For me I ultimately decided to purchase from people where I could inspect parental stock, inspect housing practices, and get reviews from others who have done business with them.
I'm not completely against buying from stores, but that is also because I have a few really good stores around me that have been open for years and I have had a chance to get to know the owners.

i can understand that. but yesterday i went to petco looking for a corn snake and they didint have none, so i went yesterday i went to my local shop and damn that was nasty.
i walked in and the smell was incredibly smelly and it was so unbearable and i had to leave shocked.
when i was little we had another pet store that i liked and this neighbor girl was doing the same thing you are doing, like writing letters and stuff so they closed down...
still want that corn snake tho:(

You will find a ton of reputable breeders there. Maybe a couple jerks, but many of them are good people who have reputations to protect. Try the classified section and look for breeders in your area. You have Afghanistan listed as your location. If that is true, this may not be so helpful.
