Bound for largest eigenvalue of symmetric matrices of uniform random variables over $[0,1]$ and fixed $1$s along diagonal and scattered $1$s

Given a $n\times n$ symmetric random matrix whose diagonals are all fixed as $1$. In addition, there are $k$ $1$s will be randomly scattered in upper triangular (of course, the corresponding places in the lower-triangle will be filled with $1$, and $2k < n^2-n$). All other elements are independent uniform random variables over $[0,1]$.

Is there known bound for the largest eigenvalue of such random matrices?

If there is not, any suggestion of possible method (I can think of using Gershgorin circle) or reference to related materials is very much appreciated.
