Longest snake - ever (captivity) Share. The longest snake - ever (captivity) is Medusa, a reticulated python (python reticulatus), and is owned by Full Moon Productions Inc. in Kansas City, Missouri, USA.

In short, the title for worldâs largest snake is shared between two species. The longest snake is the Reticulated Python, Python reticulatus, which resides in southeastern Asia. The snake that recently died in Columbus was a whopping 24 feet (7.3 meters) long but the species is known to get even larger. Several individuals have been documented between 25 and 30 feet, but things get a little murky and questionable once we break the 30-foot barrier.
