Guy was moving and had to get rid of it. Chinese Bamboo rat snake. Dont know much about snakes or handling them. Had it out yesterday while my gf was googling and she said they will strike w/o remorse lol. Really fast.

Bamboo rats are pricey still, around 5-600 a pair. They like it a bit cooler than most other rats. I have never been bit by an older one as they are normally pretty docile. If you choose to get rid of it I dont think it will be hard to find a buyer. There are a few bamboo rat locales so make sure you know which this is. Some are even pricier.
I wouldn't be too worried about getting bit, They are pretty harmless snakes bite and all. Infact if it is a nasty one the only way you will get that trait calmed is through regular handling. If you need any info on it get in touch with Pro Exotics in Colorado as they were the first ones to breed them in the US and they are very friendly on helping out. I bought all three trios of mine from them.
