Is there any way to determine age of a snake if you don't have it's birthing records??

No, The guy I got him from had him 14 years, I have had him almost a year now and he was over 900 gm when he got him so he had to be close to a year old. A series fact and a best guess for all we know he could be 20, I know he is older than 15 years because there are records that long.

But ball pythons in captivity can love up to almost 50 years can't they?

50s a stretch as far as i know 20 though for sure
