Need help in keeping them, what about substrate should I use anything or not? if not how about humidity, and if I use substrate for them, then how should I give them food? And maybe anyone can give some photos how to make a perfect setup for them.

You can keep them in the same way as another popular roach - Nauphoeta cinerea.
Some photos of my colony are here (last roach on that page). These images are old now, because I moved my insects to larger tank (40 L). Generally I use the same method as on the photo.

They eat almost everything. I give them fruits, vegetables, dry cat food and sometimes fresh meat. I provide them water in plastic dish (with evaporation they' ve got good humidity).
