Personally, I think relocation in this sort of situation is one of those things that feels good, but doesn't really accomplish anything. Unless the area you're relocating the snakes to needs to be repopulated for some reason, the relocatees will probably just be outcompeted by the locals. Or, as some studies of relocation have found, many of them might get run over or starve to death while trying to leave the place you've released them and get back to where they were.
