Heat mats??

So I bought a 4 gallon aquarium (too small?), and wanted to find a suitable heat mat. I don't want to spend alot of money on a thermostat but will do if necessary. Could someone recommend a brand/size/wattage that will get one side to the high 80s?

Exo-Terra rain forest small, 4W, 28 degrees celsius.

make sure to attach it to the side of the tank and not underneath.
