I will get a ball python soon. My mom wants to buy Guinea pigs as pets aswell to keep in my room, although I'm not sure if that would be stressful for both animals?

So basically i always wanted a snake finally convinced my dad to allow me to get one and i contacted the owner and told him to put the ball python on a frozen rodent diet first before shipping him because i don't have the heart to feed him live prey. My mom wants to buy 2 guinea pigs that she likes and put them in my room cause i have enough room for their cage. Tbh i love both of these animals in their own unique ways, although i know they are natural enemies and i don't know if they would be stressed to live in the same room in seperate cages ofcourse for the rest of their lives. Would they be okay if i had them both and took care of them both? And ofcourse let them have free room time separately so they never get the chance to be together in the same space at the same time ofcourse.
