Rails with an internal opening large enough for common suppressors? Which do you like and why.

Just a couple bits of advice: I don't like rails, and I wouldn't extend the handguard past the muzzle.
Early in the 21st century we started getting away from rails. Maybe when you typed "rail" you just meant handguard, but the big, bulky, abrasive quad rail systems are almost gone from the market for a good reason. Modern modular systems that allow you to attach rails only where you need them are lighter, and significantly more comfortable to handle.
As for the length of handguard, it might look really nice to have the can tucked in under the handguards, but there are a couple of practical considerations that go beyond aesthetics: The first consideration is that more and more suppressors are going the way of a quick attach mount. Since most of them are more than just a pipe thread adapter, and function as a form of muzzle brake/compensator/flash hider, you will want to be able to get to for cleaning. I wouldn't want to try to run a brush through holes in the handguard to get to that adapter. Then, there's going to be that one time when, for any number of reasons, you end up shooting the rifle without the can on it. Muzzle blast inside the handguard is not a good idea. There are tons of pictures all over the internet if you need to get a good visual as to why. Just use your favorite image search engine, if you need to see it, but to summarize it ranges from handguards that look like peeled bananas to pics that require you to acknowledge their graphic content before viewing the gore of flesh that has suffered equally.
