All reptiles shed their skin. Reptile skin doesn't 'stretch' like ours does. Instead, when the current skin gets too tight, they grow another one underneath. They shed (or slough) the old skin, and the new skin allows them to grow a little more.

Yes, a snakes skin does not grow with them, so they have to shed it. But don't worry they always grow new ones!
