You should mist the bedding and walls, never the snake itself.
If you're trying to increase humidity or help with a difficult shed, all you want to do is increase water vapor, not moisture - moisture can lead to bacterial and fungal growth.
Another solution is to put a large water bowl in the tank and have it evaporate - your snake could also get into it to soak and loosen its skin to shed.
You don't say what type of snake you have, but make certain that your animal needs high humidity - otherwise you might end up treating a respiratory infection.

well,you dont want to mist the snake directly but the type of snake matters a lot . If you have a desert snake , it requires much less "mist" than if its a forrest snake .But anyways you should mist the plants and the walls and always make sure that it has a water dish that it can fit its body into if its curled up.Ormaybe mist the snake a tiny bit .

Just like the reptile queen said, you want to mist the cage to bring up humidity.. plus, the snakes usually don't appreciate being sprayed directly. My sister's python likes it when a light mist falls, as a result of spraying the cage, but misting or spraying her directly upsets her.
