As of now KY has no prohibitions against lg constrictors at the state level. There are several counties and municiplities that do so you would want to check them prior to moving. You do need to obtain a "transport permit" from the KY Dept. of Fish and Wildlife resources to move animals into the state.

To paraphrase.

301 KY. ADMIN. REGS. 2:082 - Transportation and holding of exotic wildlife. (4) A person may temporarily transport or display a prohibited animal listed in this section through the state for less than ninety-six (96) hours if at all times the animal is maintained within a confinement sufficient to prevent the animal from escaping.
