just as long as the rat is proportionately safe, meaning do not feed any prey item to a snake that is thicker than the girth of the snake. Think of a nickel and put it ontop of a quarter, that should be the snake and rat analogy.
A baby Dumerils can probably take down baby rat pups or lrg rat pinkies, if they are smaller than you can always feed it two pinkies.
hope that helps.
