Just as a reminder, how old/big is he?

Things you need,

-Thermometer on hot and cold side, to measure hot, cold, and ambient (88ish hot, 78ish cold, 82ish ambient) "temp is about 80" isnt accurate enough.

-Hide on cold side, I recommend water dish in center or slightly towards hot side (helps increase humidity since you have a heat lamp and also frees up a spot for a cold side hide. The branch isnt really nessecary so make sure you have the essentials (2x hides water dish and temp/humidity gauges) then if there is room incorporate the branch.

-Mulch level should be fine, maybe slightly higher, just make sure the glass isnt accessible so the snake doesnt get burnt by the UTH.

Otherwise, the locking lid, daily misting and blocked off back all sound good.

Hope this helps! sorry if my response sounds harsh, that wasnt my intention.

EDIT:

and block out the sides of the tank too (just leaving the front clear).

- Good point, it wouldnt hurt to cover the sides

ALSO - once you figure out the humidity, if its low put a damp towel on the side of the lid that doesnt have the heater, that will help increase the humidity
