Check these pictures I found on a web-site of pipe snakes.
Take a look at the Cobra Products 25Ft Power Drain Snake. It is reasonably priced and is a very reliable product.
get a long pipe with a lid on one end. put an egg into the pipe, at the far end with the lid. then put the pipe with the egg in it anywhere where the snake will go (eg. under the house). then wait. the snake will be attracted by the egg, and it will go into the pipe. once its in there, it cant turn around or go backwards. so it wont get out. when you hear rattling or something from the pipe, the snake might be in there. if the snake is in there, then you can either leave the snake in there to die, or do something with it.
do you mean a trumpet snake? it is a pipe snake fashioned for the trumpet to make cleaning it easier.

To use a drain snake effectively to unclog a pipe, first insert the snake into the drain until you feel resistance. Then, turn the handle clockwise to push the snake further into the pipe. Once you reach the clog, continue turning the handle to break it up. Finally, slowly pull the snake out of the drain to remove the clog and any debris.
You can put a liquid pipe snake down your drain or put a hose down there
Use a Plumber's "snake".

Most of the time it looks like a frog sitting on your pipe
The red pipe snake, also known as the red-bellied snake, typically features a striking appearance with a glossy, bright red or orange belly and a dark, often black or brown, dorsal side. These snakes have a slender, elongated body that can reach lengths of up to three feet. Their smooth scales and distinct coloration make them easily recognizable, and they are often found in tropical and subtropical regions. Despite their vivid colors, they are non-venomous and generally harmless to humans.
