Glad to hear, what caused this is most likly environmental and related to your husbandry practices.

I guess it could be caused by a diseased rat. Also rodent bites, sometimes end up giving the snake an infection.

Also damp and unsanitary conditions can cause infections as well.

Your vet should figure out some intel from that "culture" he swabbed from the snakes mouth and also most likely at the site of infection.
here a good link for you to read.
