rat snakes and corn snakes are part of the one big happy family, dont have great plains rat snake however i do have 2 black rat snakes, and they are very similar to corns temperament wise, apart from them being more active.
The husbandry is very much th same as for a corn snake. |

As GMac said, most of the Pantherophis species have simular care. |

great plains can get upto about 5 foot, so very similar corns, other rat snake subspecies can grow larger than this though. |

As above great plains do get bigger, quite easily hit 6ft and chunky too. Other than that, they are pretty much the same. |
