If you don't want to kill the snake, take a stiff tine garden rake and, from behind the snake, press the tines down over the body just behind the head (between the tines of course). It's alot more comfortable approaching when they are thus immobilized. Now you simply place a gunny sack over the tail and scoop it up in one fell motion as you lift the rake. Now you can haul the bagged critter so far away it'll forget where that nice rock was, and find another.
