No, pine is not toxic. Some pines are more aromatic and oily than other types of pine and therefore more dangerous, but I have heard of a few people who like pine. The main complaint I have heard is that it is too dusty.
Cedar is definitely toxic though.
You can put a little plate to serve as a food dish in there to prevent shavings from getting on the mouse, but it only works if your snake isn't one to grab the snake and drag it all along the substrate into its hide (like mine but luckily he is on paper towels).
