Not sure about Ireland for drop off, but in UK should not be a problem. We found Enterprise most accommodating and cheap in this regard. Rented in Perth and dropped off in Manchester last October.

I would call on the toll free number and ask your questions. Ask each agency you are considering. I would start with sixt.com. They get good marks on this page.

Be sure to ask about drop charges in each town.

You could have problems finding a company in Tralee that will do one way rentals.Enterprise perhaps. Tralee is not very large and your choice of rental companies will be limited. The Kerry airport might be your best bet.

Contrary to Carl's advice, you're not likely to have to pay drop charges if you return the car in the same country.
