They are legal within teh U.S. Unfortunately, it is not legal to export them from the majority of their native range.
I have seen Xenodon severus(AKA: false fer-de-lance) available only a few times over the years. There were some juvenile Oxyrhopus Formosus which recently became available, though they sold rather quickly.
I know a few European herpetoculturist working with Oxyrhophus, while I am not aware of anyone currently working with Xenodon severus...

Best of luck,

Jeff
