You are, of course, very welcome, and this is a rarity, but rereading with more time made me realize that none of us answered correctly!!! 
.

The correct response to your post should have been:
.
What type of snake is it?
....(Some Rats are more sight feeders than scent.)
.
What age?
....(The "treat" idea isn't very practical on hatchlings.)
.
How long have you had it?
....(If a short time, you may not know its previous husbandry.)
.
WC or CB?
....(Sometimes wild animals "imprint", for lack of a better word, on a particular prey type. Also, their defenses against predators are sometimes keener, so they are shyer)
.
Does the animal have a secure hide?
....(High strung animals can feed more readily from a hide.)
And, you've tried some things; what have you tried?
....(Since you may have already tried all our suggestions, they could be mute.)
