Guys, Deborah's suggestion literally worked for real!! LOL thank you!
I actually didn't take him on a drive (because I don't have anywhere to drive lol), but I just figured it might be something about the lengthy change in environment... and added stress as mentioned previously, that snaps them out of it? So I took him out to handle and slither around in the room here and there for really a flat two hours. And then I switched his enclosure with another snake's enclosure as well, and completely changed the interior/decor so that everything is new.
I offered today which is about 5 days later, I think (I already lost track of time nowadays) and he took the f/t rat right away! Amazing. Hahah breaking a 7-8 month fast just like that.
