I'm not exactly sure WHAT the heck that is, maybe a worm(fluke) as Todd suggested it might be(shrug), but I would STRONGLY advise a trip to a good reptile vet ASAP.

Considering the snake was free, the modest vet bill won't be so bad, but it is a definite that you should take it to one, and the sooner the better. That is not something "normal" at ALL, and could easily kill your new acquisition if not taken care of fast.

good luck with it!
