Switching to rats, problems

Trying to get my snake on rats as soon as possible, I just fed him the last of his large mice tonight. Last night I attempted to feed him a baby rat and cold not get him to strike. I even brained it, did the zombie dance. That didn't work so I left it in a tupperware dish in his cage overnight to find it there the next morning untouched and smelling pretty nasty.

I have thought about getting mouse bedding and keeping the rats in it while in my freezer for scent but am unsure if used bedding residue on the rat poses a health risk to my snake.

Any suggestions to get him to eat?
