Virgin isle boas and Aniguan racers are at least two snake species that have been reintroduced to the wild from captive bred stock. I believe the smooth snake has too. Species of Cyclura have also been bred in captivity and reintroduced. Probably other species as well, although it is very uncommon as you indicate.

I agree 100% on the value of keeping snakes in captivity as an educational and thus conservation tool.
