Exclamation Big question about snakes!!

Okay so my parents are divorced and i REALLY want a pet snake my dad always says no pets but he agreed to a snake and my mom did too, we are building BIG enclosures in my closets(dads is around 2 ft wide and 5 ft long it will be sorta tall [2 ft or a bit more] and my moms house is around 2 ft wide by 4 ft ish long... but i would build a double story one with a little ladder for the snake to get up to make up for lack of space). I move from house week to week on fridays. The dilemma is i figured the snake would get stressed, are there any "tough/tolerant" snakes that dont get bigger than a redtail boa that would be okay with that? Any techniques for moving it to reduce the stress, its about a 15 minute drive in a car.... i have arouuunnddd.... a 150-200 dollar budget for a snake just to give the idea. oh and it would be my first snake, just keep that in mind.

p.s. with the snake type suggestion is there any wood/matereals that i should not use besides cedar?
