Stress, you tried to feed it an then put it in a tank without it's colony. Or, did it eat any of the food? Then you have heat. If the tank got over 80 you'll have a few dead rats.
Did it come from a pet store? Tell them it died (take it with you) an get another or see if the store had a die off.
Maybe it's a good thing your snake wasn't hungry.
