You want to look for a combo amp. Don't bother with a practice amp at all, and certainly not with buying a separate head and cab stack.
My current 'at home' amplifier, is a 40watt HiWatt. It works great for its purpose and it's fine for gigging too. A standard 40watt amplifier can play alongside drums on stage (at a smallish venue) and not be drowned out.
Basically, what you're looking for is: A 40-60 watt combo amplifier. Brands you may want to look at are: Hiwatt, Peavey, Marshall, Fender, Crate, Laney, Line 6. You say you'd like a small amp, but you're looking at least a 12inch speaker for a decent sound. Also if you look at the line 6 and crate range you'll find some with built in effects (including an amp modeller).
