Have you tried somewhere warm like up the back of the refrigerator (between the fridge and the heat sink grill) or up the back of the radiator?

Bring a girl over to watch tv. The snake will apear out of nowhere! Honest, it will.
If that doesn't work, check your room for any places where a TV cable, pipe, etc. may exit. They may not have sealed the holes and the snake may have gotten into the wall. Also, will it fit under the door? Other great hiding places are inside the VCR, back of TV, wrapped around the coils on the fridge.
Think like a snake...be the snake. Good luck.

for the reason that all 3 have straightforward features, any may well be nice. we've 2 corns and a king for pets. i might seem on the colors and shape of the pinnacle, etc. to be certain which you like ultimate. Please do no longer help morphism, however. that's brutal on the snake's genes. in my opinion, i admire Okeetee corn snakes and banded California king snakes via the appearance and temperament. For the checklist, our king snake is extra aggressive than our corns. yet, a chew from a juvenile king isn't even like the pinch of a young person.

Did you look everywhere warm? Under your bed inside the bedding. Under all your furniture, inside your furniture. Among your clothing, even dirty clothing. Heating ducks. Up in the lighting fixtures.
Do you have a kitchenette? under anything such as a refrigerator, tower of a computer...
Corn snakes are small. We had over 12 foot pythons (we had several larger snakes) escape and some of the places we found them at was rather entertaining. One would stick its head under the refrigerator not realizing we could see its 10 or more feet of body sticking out....
If you do not think the snake could ever be hiding there, look anyway.....even down the toilet!

as everyone said look for cracks crevices warm dark spots.mine got in to the ceiling ha.good thing is get an empty coke bottle cut it n in the large end put a pre killed mouse n cover the open end with mesh jus big enough for him to get through.idea is he will squeeze through eat the mouse n not fit back out through the mesh.this is a really effective way of cathing a lost snake.good luck

first try explaining the situation to the other residents. try looking in dark corners. makesure that its not able to crawl under the door or get out of the house in anyway. its good if it cant leave the house, thats why i dont worry too much if my baby turtle excape in the house.
if you used to take it out of the tank for it to crawl around, try looking in places where it usually crawl.
leave live bait out in a cage in the middle of a room and see if it disapairs, thats a good sign that its still in the house.
look in dark or warm places. look even where you wouldnt think it would be. and be carefull where you step. havie guests over but dont tell them of the snake. its like they'll something weird, they'll notice it if you dont tell them about it, but if they go looking for it they wont find it. just tell them to watch thier step.

If he is due for a feed defrost a mouse and put it in the middle of the room-see if the smell draws him out.

have you tried behind your drawers, also pull your bottom drawer out and check under them. Try underneath clothes too. I used to own a snake which got out. Missing for 3 days, found him in my sock drawer at the back, scared the hell out of me!!
