You can mitigate the risk of stress by crowding the enclosure with branches hides and perches, this prevents the snake from feeling too exposed and as the snake grows you can remove some of the clutter (just make sure that there are no gaps that a juvie diamond could get out).

A larger size will also allow you to create a warm basking site while keeping the rest of the enclosure fairly cool.
