Heat mats should be position under the tank, be careful to read the instructions though as some cannot be placed under weight so instead u put legs on the tank and stick to the underside
Heat rocks are fine inside

I run some heat mats in the enclosure on the floor with a piece of slate sitting on top of it as a heat sink. In other enclosures I run them sitting on a fabricated sheetmetal "table" elevated about 50-75mm again with slate on top. This allows the snake to sit on or under the heat source.
