Depending on tank size you could try making a humidity box/chamber to place inside the tank. Basically a hide with moist substrate (paper towel). The snake should naturally want to go into it if its dark. The moisture content inside the hide will help hydrate its skin. Regular misting of the tank should be enough though. B.c.c. are less forgiving than B.c.i. Did you see the snake go opaque?
