they generally don't recommend "Soil, Sand or Dirt" in reptile cages. Most people use shredded aspen, repti-bark or mats, or even paper towels or newspaper for the substrate.
Keeping a living plant alive in those situations would be difficult. It would require soil, light, occasional fertilizing and watering. Some of these could affect the snake. ie - too much humidity, parasites on the plants or soil, fertilizer burn or poisoning etc...
There are some really nice artificial plants and vines available commercially. Most of us use those. There may be some folks that use real living plants, but I can't help you, I'm not one of them.
