Hookworms can only be successfully treated with medicines prescribed by a vet. If the worms are coming out of the snake's mouth, good chances that the parasite load is extremely heavy and it will kill the snake if treatment isn't given asap. If you are not able to pay for veterarian care, it would be best to have the snake euthenized. However, treatment for worms isn't really expensive, so to save the snake, taking him to a qualified reptile/snake vet would be the best solution (and practically your only solution). ----- PHLdyPayne
