Poor thing... corn snakes rarely have issues with shedding, so this one may just be too weak to get the job done. I would get it to eat first and foremost. If it can hold a meal down, that's a good start.

Wouldn't it be better to hold off feeding for a bit to get it hydrated and out of its stuck shed? Feeding severely dehydrated animals usually kills them since they can't digest properly. Any food before its fully hydrated is probably a bad idea - not sure how long it would take to get this guy properly hydrated. He looks bad enough that a vet's advice on if he needs IV fluids would be good if possible.
