st: Panel mixed-effects models

Hello,
I am trying to estimate a panel model of the form:
Y_it = a_i + a_t + B_i * X_it + e_it
I would like to use fixed effects for both of the 'a' coefficients because
I believe that the individual-effects are correlated with Y (so the
assumptions for random effects are not met). That would be a simple two-way
fixed effects model. However, I would like to use random effects for the B
coefficient. Thus, I want to assume B_i = B + n_i, where n_i is a normally
distributed random variable.
I cannot figure out how to estimate this model in Stata. It seems that
xtmixed should be able to handle it, but with large N or large T, I think
there are complications. I couldn't find examples (for xtmixed or xtrc)
that use fixed effects for individual- or time- effects but random slope
coefficients, although I think this is possible.
Perhaps I am misunderstanding something. Any guidance or clarification
would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mitch
