I've looked into this and if you check youtube the only bath videos are clearly a snake just looking to get out of the water. In certin circumstances a bath is a good idea (mites, covered in poo/blood etc) but as for regular bathing, I wouldn't bother its a magor pain in the backside. Just have a abowl big enough for the snake to get in, they'll bathe themselves if they want to.

in over eight years of keeping snakes I've only ever 'bathed' a snake twice, both cases were bad sheds.
