Answers:

If you have a relationship with this animal -- call it by its name. If you don't have a realtionship, perhaps it is not really a pet.

Set out trays of water. Snakes and all animals need water, It will come to the water.

Find it soon before hybernation season comes. If you don't find it, look for the place that would seems most underground - in the bottom of a close or a cabinet, between your stored sheets and towels, under coushions or pillows, etc.

Look under the sofa cushions.

That happened to me once. My snake got out from a small hole in the top of the terrarium and I couldn't find him. About a week or two later I say a very big trail of ants going inside of my door. I have one of those crappy plywood doors with some cardboard inside of them, and when I tore open a few holes, I found a dead snake curled up in a ball halfway up the door.

So I'd say search where you'd least expect.

if your snake its mice, get a mouse, and let it free in your house where you think he might be. Put the mouse in some sort of like powder, so wherever he runs it leaves a trail. wherever the trail stops, thats where he got eaten, and your sname will be around there somewhere.

set traps.let live chooks and mice run around in the house when the snake has finished eating these he/she should be big enough to see from far away and then you can catch it

Look somewhere that has a heat source. I found mine under the fridge once, and under the tub another time. I also found one of mine on top of the rat cage (outside the house, how it got there still amazes me.) But I wouldn't reccomend letting rats to inside your home. Put one in a tank instead. Almost anything that it can wrap around, and if it is wrapped around something, obviously you shouldn't pull on it.
