Give him a week to settle in, and access to plenty of water because he's dehydrated in the photo provided. I'm thinking that this looks like an albino gopher snake and is definitely not a corn snake. After the week of being mostly left alone, offer him a large f/t pinky and try dunking the thawed pinky in boiling water for a few seconds so it turns white and rubbery, then immediately place it in with your new snake and leave him completely alone and in the dark for 24 hours. I've had excellent luck with boiled f/t pinks. Live is definitely also an option for this kiddo. Do not offer food more than every 3 days until he starts eating, at which point you should then feed every 5 days until he's no longer underweight. Then drop to every 7 days.
