I would say no because you dont want him to get to cold but i would monitor his temps religuously to make sure ge doesnt get burned.
I dont even use a uth for fear of it burning my bp. I use a 75 watt infared red night viewing light and an actual small heater on a very low setting about 1ft away from the cage to keep his hot side temps up. Its a little harded to keep the humidiry controlled but i dont worry about my snake getting byrned
