All the elements in the first column of the Periodic Table (lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium) have one valence electron. I also believe Helium has one valence electron.

A huge selection is available. With reference to the periodic table (available on wikipedia) one could select any of the elements from groups 1, 2 or 3 (including the lanthanides and actinides).
