I heard they can survive for at least 48 hours.
But it depends on the size and age of it, i dont think a newborn would last long at all.
They would get pretty weak without food.

You could put one of the rats down, and freeze it until you need it. I have to do this when my rats have a litter and the babies are growing too fast to be fed-off. Granted, your snake would have to be used to eating f/t...
