To find food, the snake has to find it. They use their Jacobson's organ(an internal organ that allows snakes to locate their food by "smelling" it) or their "belly" scales to pinpoint their meal using the prey's vibrations(movements). Once the prey is found, the snake forms a "S" and strikes its meal and injects venom; this making the small animal more managable for the snake.
