escaped snake question

Hey everyone, My 2 yr cal king pulled a houdini on me around mid march and i've been tearing the house apart ever since trying to find her. I've been reading all the little tricks on catching escaped snakes, like using the flour and checking laundry piles. I even have a mouse set out as bait, with my snake's hidebox next to the mouse's cage. I was reading the article a couple posts below about that snake found in the oven. So that got me thinking about checking behind the stove and under the fridge, but my question is how?? The kitchen floor is linoleum, how do i pull the stove out without scratching the floor to pieces? Do you just empty the fridge then tip it over? Can you just tip those appliances over??.That may sound like a stupid question, but i don't want to tear my mom's floor up or ruin her fridge. Anyways, thanks for the help.
Oh, by the way, that mouse i bought as bait has got to be the luckiest one alive. My sister thought the mouse was cute, so the mouse is now Bob and was declared off-limits as a food source. A warm-blooded pet?? i don't understand...... ;)
