I reckon a wine cooler could work in a terrible pinch. But I have to wonder, just how many species of snakes actually just go down for the count in Oct/Nov only to resurface come April, nothing in between... It's more likely that most snakes re-emerge constantly when daytime temps allow them, often on a regular basis. To just fully put them down for several months may not simulate the most normal conditions.
In your case, the answer is fairly simple. Find another place to brumate. Sounds like you're not thinking very far "outside the box".
I live in Florida. If I can brumate, so can you!
Dan.
