I'd go for a UTH, and a separate light-source during daytime. Seems like the easiest solution. (Even if you wanted to use some lightbulbs for heating you would have to make sure the snake can't get to it and burn itself...)
If you want some lighting during the night, you could get a dimmer, attach it to a normal red light bulb, and adjust the light to a minimal level. Even IF cornsnakes could see the light it still shouldn't be a problem if it is less intense than moonlight.
imho.
Hope I answered your question... There will probably be more replies.

The red bulb can be used both durning the day and night. And, you can just get one from Home Depot/hardware store and it will work just as well as the ones from the pet stores.
You might want to look into getting a dimmer switch for your UTH so that you can control the amount of current going to it, and thus controllling the temp. Use a thermometer to find the correct temp as you adjust the dimmer switch, and then just leave the switch as that setting for the temp that you want.
