I would look into any gaps or crevices that could lead to a basement, if you have one. Not too long ago, my female got out (yes, it was my fault, because I trusted that my friend had closed the cage properly but did not, and the snake got out overnight.) We looked high ald low for her, even in the absement (which is dirt-floor and right now is a horrid 13 degrees F.) We checked the basement every day, because stupidly there was a gap in the heating vent where a snake could fit in and end up in the basement. Sadly, about a week after her escape, we found her in the basement up by the rafters, presumably trying to get back upstairs. I cried for hours about it.

I know how horrible you feel about it. But if there are no gaps or crevices that lead outdoors, I doubt your snake has escaped.

I have since had my boyfriend patch up the stupid gap in the heater that led to this in the first place, but it does not make me feel any better about this all. Try looking in any heating ducts or in cupboards by pipes leading down to the basement (if you have a basement) would be my suggestion. Good luck in your search.
