I wouldn't recommend one for a first-time snake. The ROYAL PYTHON (Python regius) - to give its official name - is well-known for going on 'self-imposed fasts'. This means they can just stop eating for no apparent reason (and I speak from experience !)

Although a docile species, they are also a heavy-bodied snake and CAN reach lengths of 60 inches (1.5m) in length. Some of my own specimens are that length AND still growing !

They require height humidity (being a jungle species) and branches to climb on - with a daytime temperature of up to 30oC and a night-time drop of about 10oC

Ball pythons, or Royal Pythons, are smaller snakes (4-6 feet) and are commonly kept as pets.Burmese Pythons are much larger and thicker than BP's and can grow up to around 18 feet (more commonly around 12-15)Reticulated Pythons are similar to Burmese Pythons but are normally thinner, longer and more aggressive than the Burmese.Green Tree Pythons are about the same size as Ball Pythons but are from New Guinea and dwell in trees while BP's are from Africa and are ground-dwellers. Both feed on small mammals.

Are green tree pythons good for begginer pets?

Absolutely not. Green tree pythons may look majestic and pretty but they are fairly very expensive and their equipment is very expensive too(and to care for them is quite difficult). I would recommend a tree Python for at least a 4th or 5th snake (and maybe even a 3rd) but not for a 2nd or a begginer snake.
