Looks like a nice snake. I used to have snakes crawl on that ledge alot too, and thats part of why I started making my own lids. My lids rest on/in that lip, instead of over it, so there is no ledge. If a strong snake gets in that ledge area, they can lift the lid even if it has some weight on it, because it allows them to push with their whole body.
As Krystal said, try different things with the heat, and also the hides, and maybe you'll find a way to make it stay down.
