Kacey, 21, and her boyfriend Harvey Layfield were getting ready for work when it made a surprise appearance.
The nursery practitioner was left frozen in fear when she spotted the serpent.
The unwanted guest is most likely to be a corn snake which are common pets across the nation.
They can grow to almost 6ft long.
Native to the US, the non-venomous predators are known to kill prey via constriction.

The RSPCA attended the home on Friday (24 Jan) after they spotted it at 6am at their home in Burnley, Lancs.
Attempts were made to retrieve the snake from the bog.
To the resident’s horror, the serpent was stuck and quickly retreated back down the pipes.

Since then the toilet has been out of bounds as they wait for the snake to reappear.
Kacey told What’s The Jam: “I froze in shock and instantly ran to my bedroom.
“I turned the bathroom light on and could see a brown object on the toilet seat, as I got closer I realised it was a snake’s head.
“I woke my boyfriend and he didn’t believe me till he went and looked himself.
“We are both clueless as to how it got there.
“My boyfriend rang the RSPCA and they were shocked as it’s not very common for snakes to be found in toilets in the UK.
“They came and tried to get it out but its stomach was too big to pull out.
“She used a hook and as she tried to pull it out it slithered back down the toilet into the pipe.
“I couldn’t go to work as I’ve had to wait for it to return and may need a plumber to check the pipes.
“We are still very hesitant when going to the bathroom and are having to check the loo constantly.”
