They do not necessarily need heat LAMPS at all times but they usually require some source of heat. Captive snakes may have a heating lamp or a heating pad or in hotter parts of the world may not require heating. In the wild they do not need heating lamps. They use the sun and may go under ground when it is too cold.

That would depend upon the voltage of the lamps. Heat lamps in a bath are usually 110 volts AC. You also need to know the wattage of the lamps.

The fixture supporting the lamp must also be of the correct capacity.
