Can i have a male and female corn snake in the same 40 gallon tank?

Im wondering if i can have both in the same tank, will they try to breed even though its not breeding season or will they know when to breed, so then they will act like a regular corn snake. I do have a couple hides in the tank and aspen for them to dig into, or should it mainly be 2 females in one tank? Im hoping to get a couple answers to help me decide. I think that they wont breed since when they start, it will be closer to the spring time, i know i need to separate them when i would feed them and separate them a little bit before breeding. Thanks
