There are lots of real estate sites on the Internet. Try RealtyTrac for listed foreclosures.

It really just depends on what area of the state you want to live in which depends on what kind of environment you are looking for. You can find rural areas throughout SC where you can easily buy 10+ acres of land. Also prices for the housing market and land are pretty fair here so you should have no trouble finding what you're looking for.

If you want to live near the coast, you will find some nice rural areas an hour or so from the ocean but you will have to deal more with tourism spikes during the summer. The Midlands is good if you want to be within an hour of the capital with lots to do if you get bored. The Upstate is great with lots of available land in most counties including mountain areas.

Don't forget about looking into the Pee Dee area. Florence is a great place to live!
