do you also think it will be a safe practice for the db or keeping it open

  You're working with a copy of the database in memory until you explicitly
issue a write or flush command ('commit'). The database on disk remains as
it was even if your system crashes for some reason. A disk failure could
damage the database, but not keeping open a connection to the working
application.
