Regardless of your budgie cage size please remember that in order to remain healthy and happy your budgie will require regular time out of its cage. It needs to exercise, so let your budgie out for a fly as often as possible - at least three times a week, but preferably daily. Insure all windows and doors are closed, and any hazards are out of the way.
Once you have established a routine allow your budgie time out on a daily basis - even if it just sits out on top of its cage for a while. The minimum time out should be one hour per day, but ideally your budgie should be able to come and go as it pleases, within reason, and depending on your home environment.
Do not keep your budgie locked up in its cage day in and day out.

when you first get it but if you scold it when it poops or pees outside of its cage it will learn not to

WHAT?! When I got my budgie, I was told to keep it in the cage and if I wanted to bring it out (which I was preferred to very often) to get its wings cliped. My sister and I took it out once (no wings cliped) in the bathroom and whoa the thing almost died! I was so scared and regreted it. She kept crashing in to the windows and didn't fly only if I went to pick her up she'd fly and she'd fly right into a mirror or window or wall than fall. I'm so scared to ever do that again.

Yep, they will poop all over your house. Just watch and clean it up immediately.
