Can a midland brown snake and a ringneck snake live in the same tank?

It'd just be temporary, I'm just wondering if theyd be ok for now. Theyre about the same size - No one is gonna be able to eat anyone, I'm just wondering if they'll fight. Thanks!

    It really is just going to stress the animals out. Also whenever you get a new animal it should be kept in quarantine for a month or you risk spreading illnesses, parasites, etc to other animals. Snakes are best kept singly and it is never a good idea to mix species. If you cannot provide a separate enclosure then do not get another snake.
