I give all my snakes water using disposable plastic deli cups. They are relatively cheap (in bulk) and I don't ever have to was a waterbowl.

In order to secure them in place, I use 4 inch diameter sleeves of PVC pipe. I don't know exactly what they are called, but these are 4 inch diameter pieces of PVC that are about 2 inches long. They are for joining PVC as far as I can tell.
You can either silicone or screw the PVC piece to the corner/side of the cage or just stand/glue it in the middle of the cage and then put the waterbowl in it. Then add your shavings to the cage and the snake can't burrow beneath the bowl.

I never have problems with spilled waterbowls anymore, and I don't have to wash them either!
