Have you checked Craig's list? Sometimes people with accidental (or purposeful =/) will post there. Or, if you're not set on babies, someone who can no longer keep their rat(s) or even someone who bought a rat as a feeder and either their snake wouldn't eat it or they got too attached to feed it. I've seen that happen a lot on CL, lol.
Just keep your eyes open and I'm sure the right rats will come along one way or another.
As I said when I was searching for a friend for Pooka, "let the spirit of the Rat guide you!" lol. It led me to Anya, so it clearly works. XD
Oh, also, if you're not completely against getting a rat from petco, I recommend keeping an eye there. If you catch 'em before they've been there long, you could potentially find a healthier rat. My girl Eevee was at Petco for at least a month, though, (because she's a dumbo and they don't sell dumbos as feeders) and she was in surprisingly good health. I think she must be a very hardy rat because she's two years old and has only developed health issues over the last few months. You can get lucky at Petco and find a gem.
Best of luck! ^_^
