Unfortunately it really depends more on the ball python than people think.
-
How is the personality on this little one? If they’re very shy or defensive they may do poorly in a large enclosure.
-
is this a male or female BP? Some males do get large, but generally most females are larger.

How large of a space do you have? The general recommendation now is 4’ x 2’ x 2’. Some go bigger. Some go smaller for males

would this be a standalone or would you be looking at a large rack system later on?
If your BP is very shy they may need to be kept in smaller enclosure until they build up the confidence to exist in a more open enclosure. I have 2 that refuse to handle windows, so they exist in tubs. Others can thrive with a big space and just chill anywhere.
As far as anything else, unless it’s a tub, you will need to seal any of the other enclosures with silicone to prevent leaking. You want to use an aquarium safe one to avoid any potential fumes or chemicals. And enough time to let it cure.
If you plan to plant it, remember BPs are heavy bodied. They tend to bulldoze sensitive plants. You would have to look into some sturdy ones and the proper lighting to maintain them without overdoing it for the BP.
