Snakes like to have a gradient; a cool side and a hot side. You'll need a hide on each side so s/he will feel comfy on either side.

get yourself a digital thermometer with a probe. I have an Acurite digital thermometer with an "out door" probe and i put the unit on the cool side and the probe on the warm side. The Acurite (found at wal-mart for about 13 bucks) will also measure your humidity. If you're having problems keeping the humidity up (i assume you are because of the shed you described), you can always get a wet towel and put it over the screen. This worked wonders for me when i used a tank.
