Either use heat mats that are designed for in cage use, or use flexwatt. With flexwatt, you'd wire up a piece and then put it in the viv. Then you'd want to cover it with a piece of plexiglass and screw down the plexiglass and seal up the edges with silicon. This is incase of a water spill so the snake doesn't get electrocuted.
