Silicon ?

Any aquarium silicon (from an aquarium store) should work perfectly. Just make sure you're working in a vented area (noxious fumes while wet) and allow it to properly dry.
 
Both should work. Read the product comments to get a better idea of the application.

Looks like the clear one can take a long time to cure and looks like the other is pretty good but won't dry clear.
 
Unless you're planning to immerse the sealant, or run very high humidity, many different sealants will do. Beyond that, any silicon sealant that's allowed to cure will be safe enough for a corn snake enclosure. Unlike mammals, they won't nibble or ingest it. For straight construction projects I prefer the GE Silicon II, but the products from Dow Corning are excellent also. IF you are going to immerse the project (bioactive substrate, water pool, planting, etc) then I'd recommend you choose a dedicated aquarium sealant.
 
The kitchen and bath version suits our purposes better. It's made for mildew resistance and interior use and cleaning, the window and door formula is better suited to outdoors / weathering and sun exposure.
