Having it at the hot end will increase the humidity, maybe a bit too much, I usually have mine in the middle or at the cool end.

i have mine at the warm end as the lamp i use makes the humidity very dry but if your humidity is ok put it at the cool end or in the middle as BE said.

Queenie has his in the cool end - no lack of humidity issues with orchid bark.

one thing to add though - snakes often poo around the perimeter of their enclosure, so moving it a few inches in from the side will hopefully prevent 'accidents' in the water bowl!
