Despite the name, dwarf breed rabbits still need at least 8 square feet of cage space. A 4'x2' would work. They also need a ton of exercise, five hours a day recommended and they're "play floor space needs to be at least 24 square feet.
They need a varied diet, they get feed multiple times a day and their enclosure need to be cleaner multiple times per day. When you slip and fall behind on that, it starts to stink something awful.
Also despite their "fluffy cuteness" they don't tolerate being held quite as much as snakes. Neither species /likes/ it, but snakes are often more subtle about it. A rabbit will kick and make a fuss. (Btw you need monthly nail trimming and also hard things for them to chew to help file their teeth)
A corn snake can be housed in a smaller enclosure, they only eat one thing usually just once a week and you need to clean up after them just as often.
It's up to you, but if you have to ask then I'd say a corn snake.
