Although to be honest it's not like a police officer is going to know the differences between snakes, unless you went around advertising it's illegal you probably wouldn't run into any issues selling or bringing them across the entire country.
If it's a baby and you want to ship it, just write on the box, say it's a ball python, no one is going to open it and double check anyway.
Still a retarded law but I doubt it would be heavily enforced.
