The reason I ask is because I would guess it's looking for access to a cooler area than it has available as opposed to looking for more warmth. In my opinion under the cage heating is a better option for terrestrial snakes such as yours. It doesen't dry the cage out as much and it won't heat the whole cage as much but instead keeps the heat more localized. I personally prefer the cool side in the low 70's if not brumating at even cooler temps this time of year.
