THere is no point in speculating about the cause of death for this snake with so little information. In the future, you should pack the snake in ice water until you can get it to a vet for a gross necropsy.

It isn't likely that one or two generations of inbreeding led to this snake being too weak to survive. On the off chance that was an impact, it would have resulted in weak babies which wouldn't live two years.
Whenever I see a mysterious death, I always suspect either temperature related fatality (too hot) or some sort of poisoning. Quite a few chemicals that are relatively harmless to humans are very toxic to snakes.
