Snails like other invertebrates do not have spinal cord nor one single brain. Instead they have a set of ganglia (groupings of neurons) that distribute the control of the organism to different areas. For example a snail like other mollusk (phylum Mollusca) have a buccal ganglia to control the mouth.

All animals in the subphylum craniata (vertibrates) have what is called cephilization, or the center of their nervous system (brain) located in their cranium (skull)...simply put, if it has a backbone, it will have a skull. The skull will be where the brain is. Snakes have a head which is where its skull is, and that is where you will find its brain.
