I would say, try some slices in the hair first and see if that gives you the feel you want. Red is a great colour but it can be hard to wear and as everyone has said, the upkeep is tough because it does fade.
I was red as a teen, and when I tried to go back to a really deep red in my early 20s I had a terrible time of it because the colourist, for reasons known only to herself, decided to bleach my (black tint) colour right out and then tint back to red. It was awful. If they are going to lighten your hair, don't let them lighten it much! Dark hair will throw a deep red all by itself with bleach.
A semipermanent will give you a coppery or burgundy glow in the light - you could try that first. It won't harm your hair and will be easy to do yourself.
