Well I am not sure how to attract him out but I have a similiar story. I lived in a two story house and had all my snakes in my room. Well one of my Rosy Boas got loose and was NO WHERE to be found. I searched for weeks and never found it. Well about 3 months later out in my garage I found him. Somehow he made his way down the stairs, out a automatically closing door out to the garage, climbed up a shelf rach where i had glass mouse cages and smaller breeding cages. Well it had made its way into one of the breeding cages and ate the mother mouse and about 10 pinky mice. He was SO STUFFED that he could not even get back out of the cage (Which was a plastic shoebox style with a metal lid that held the food and a water bottle in it).

second escapee was gone for about 2 months, my 5 foot gopher snake. Well we were out of town for vaction and my grandparents were watching the house. (My grnadpa is EXTREMELY scared of snakes). Well He sat down in the recliner chair and the gopher snake actually hissed and struck at him, it was hiding in a ficus tree that was next to the chair.

So if you do not find him right away I would set up a cage with alot of mice in it, maybe not that he can directly get into but can attract him to that area. Maybe put them in a closet and put some shirts or something in there on the ground. Wait until night time to look for him under the shirts or in the closet. make sure nothing that is too heavy is in there for him to hide under and make it easier on yourself to keep looking for him. Good Luck in finding him..
