Does size of Viv affect snake growth?

I was reading in another thread where a 3-4 year female corn snake was only 75 grams and not very long. Assuming that the snake was fed properly, I am wondering if inadequate housing could have caused this slow growth.I have heard that if a reptile is kept in a small viv that their growth rate can be slowed down or even stunted. I was just wondering if there is any credence to this theory. My snake has been kept in a 29 gallon high since he was a year old so no worries for me personally, I was just curious.
