From the sound of it,could be blister disease. Also you know mite droppings look like white powder on the snake also.

I recommend having less water in its enclosure. Too much moisture in an enclosure will cause blister disease in many reptiles. It's most common in water snakes because most people think you need a watery enviorment when you don't.
