What sort of storage space should I be looking for? And I need one with a keyboard or possibly a connection for one, if that's possible.

They come in several screen sizes. 7 inch up to I think 13, I think Google did a Nexus tablet that was 13 inch.
Tablets have Bluetooth so you can just buy a Bluetooth keyboard and use that. I use a Bluetooth keyboard with my laptop even though my laptop has a keyboard, the Bluetooth one is just better (quieter, backlight).

Anyone any advice? I'm not willing to spend huge money, in fact I'm only considering the idea so, say, maybe 100 Euro? Less? Are there names I should look out for/avoid, things I should know?

You get what you pay for.

Impart your wisdom, o tablet owners!
Note: obviously, I don't expect/intend this to be a replacement for my PC. It would just be something extra to use.

I considered a tablet for a year or two but was never really won over by any single one. In the end I sold my Nexus 4 and got a Nexus 6 phone which has a six inch screen and was happy with that.
I would look at the Nexi (that's plural for Nexus) tablets tbh. Might be over your budget though. Nexus 7 may be possible if it's second hand.
