Chances are good if you have a snake that is captive bred it doesn't carry salmonella.

i agree it is a bad decision for you or any other member of your household to kiss the snakes or any other animal in your house. always wash up after handling any pets you may have. as far as the snakes though i dont even let mine get close to my face at any point in time. if i am going to be bitten by one of them it sure isnt going ot be in the facial area lol

Re: Do you kiss your snake (or allow your kids to)?
my bp is actually incredibly hygenienic.
if he needs the loo, i know because for about two hours before hand, he'll try and get out of his cage, and he never, ever tries to escape for any other reason. often ill take him out especially for a piss, meaning my substrate almost never gets dirtied. if he does, by chance take a piss in his enclosure, he'll try and escape afterwards (aswell as before), and wont go anywhere near it. he puts his tail up to a corner of the enclosure and does his business there. then goes and sits in the opposite corner of his enclosure or continues to try and escape until its clean. then he still refuses to go near where he did his business for atleast 5 or 6 hours - even when its spotless. after any defecation i always bath him with running mildly warm water, which he seems to appreciate.
basically. yes, i do occassionaly kiss my snake, and have never got ill, i dont worry about it either. :p
letting a dog lick your face is MUCH worse imo.
