I have a 4 month old corn snake and I have read that you are suppose to soak them in water so my question to yall is how often should I take him out his home and place him in a container of warm water to swim/soak? I change his water out every morning and I make sure it is always full enough for him to get in (the water bowl in his cage that is)

No, you don't need to soak them in water at all. Wherever you read that should be treated with a little caution.
Some people let adults have supervised swims in the bathtub (water at room temp, not warm or cool) but I'd not risk it with something as small and fast as a four month old. Some Corns are fine with it, some absolutely hate it. I've never taken mine for a swim and I've never soaked them either, so you'll be fine without if that's what you choose.
If they have a problem shed, you can give them a damp hide to help the problem.
