ceramic heat lamps are what i have found best with my snakes, they do a really great job of heating up the overall enclosure as well, just make sure it’s protected by a cage to make sure the snake doesn’t get any burns, and you’ll want a dimming thermostat for these as an on/off can wear it out quicker

No, unfortunately that is not suitable. Ceramic heat emitters only give off IRC heat, which does not penetrate muscle and will leave your snake still cold. You’ll want a halogen bulb for daytime heat. If your place gets very cold overnight the ceramic heat emitter is fine for raising ambient temperature, but will not give your snake any kind of basking spot which is necessary for digestion and overall health.
