Sounds like a respiratory infection, so get him to a reptile vet for antibiotics.

In the meantime, I think the usual advice is to slightly increase the temp in his tank (only by a degree or two) and increase the humidity to help him breathe.

Kingsnake.com has a specialist Milksnake forum, so might be an idea to ask there.

Do you see any sort of discharge from his nose or mouth? It may be a respiratory infection, or it may be preshed behaviors. My snow corn does this same behavior (yawning, clicking, sneezing) when getting ready to shed. I don't think leaving a window open all night will give him an RI that quick. Watch him carefully and if you see any kind of discharge from his nose or mouth, get him to a vet asap.
