Don't be nasty.

You'll just have to wait and see if he passes it. If not, get it to a vet.

Hopefully it will pass it, keep an eye on its stool.

If it doesnt you might have to get an xray.

Newspaper is a good cheap substrate and i doubt your snake will eat a sheet of newspaper

(allthough i did hear of a burm that ate its electric blanket

)
