Don't get to far off base here, even Elaphe guttata can be tough neonate feeders in some cases.
>>and unlike milks,they eat
In fact, that's one of the things that made me wonder about the OP's snake. Her snake was willing to eat, and to do so immediately after capture. Didn't sound terribly milk-hatchling-like to me!
While I believe Doug is half kidding around here w/ the North American milks not eating, I feel it needs to be stated that neonate milks will and do take food items soon after being hatched, and many times the day they hatch.
Wild caught animals from my experience more often then not take to lab mice readily in most cases.
