If it is possible to get the mass of the corn snake in question it would be easier to give you proper advice. If you search this forum for "munson plan" you will find a feeding plan based on the mass of the snake which works well as a basic guide, though some people consider it a bit too aggressive and back off its recommended schedule a little bit.

Click on the link above for a PDF of the original Munson Plan.
After a while there was a concensus that the plan is a little aggressive in feeding. If the fluff makes a feeding bump that stays for a couple of days, you're on the right size. (Most people stay at 5-6 day between feeding that size) When it makes a smaller lump and is digested within a day it's time to move up a size and increase the time between feedings. If you buy a bulk bag of fluffs though, it's simple to weigh and sort them so you use up all the 5g ones first, then the 6g, then the 7g and so on.
