Sounds like a respitory infection. I'm guessing the "squeaking" you mentioned is from when she breaths though? If so you need to take her to the vet and mention this to him/her.

Maybe it didn't kill the mouse and it has set up shop in your ball pythons stomach Pinocchio style and that is the squeeking you hear!!! or maybe it's signs of a mild RI. Who knows it could go either way. If it is an RI you might be able to solve that by just increasing heat a little and raising humidity if you have not seen any wheezing and discharge. If it is a mouse...it will likely build a fire and let itself out.
