The Largest snake ever recorded is a 49-foot, 900 pound reticulated python that is currently in captivity in Java, Indonesia.
This, along with most records of outsized snakes, is a complete hoax. Although this specimen is large, it is closer to 24 feet. A reward of one million dollars by the Smithsonian Museum for a snake over 30 feet long has never been claimed, and has been offered since the 60's.
The world longest snake is the Reticulated python, which has been known to grow consistently over 20 feet long if left alone to grow. The Guiness Book of Records lists the longest Reticulated Python ever officially measured to be 32 feet, 9 1/2" long.
The second longest snake in the world on a consistent basis would be the Green Anaconda in South America, which also can grow over 20' and on average is a heavier bodied snake, being overall the Largest snake in the world by mass.
Reports of longer snakes, such as the 49 foot snake found in Indonesia that you can find all over the web, have never been confirmed and usually turn out to be hoaxes. See the photo in the related links.
There was also a well-publicised story in the Guardian (see related link)
It was a hoax. When people actually measured it, it turned out to be only 21-23 feet long. The 48 foot measurement was not remotely possible and it was dumb for news agencies to report it - that's like believing there's an 11 foot tall person.
The longest snake ever found was a reticulated python reported to be 33 feet long.
The longest snake living in captivity is a reticulated python named Medusa. She is 25ft long.
The worlds longest snake is the Green Anaconda.
the longest snake recorded in history was a green anaconda which was 42.5 feet.

That would be the King Cobra. They usually measure about 15 feet in length, but the longest ever recorded was at a Zoo in London, measuring 18 feet 9 inches.
The biggest snake ever discovered by man is the Titanoboa cerrejonensis. The snake lived approximately 60 million years ago, the period following the extinction of the dinosaurs. The snake could reach up to 15 meters in length and weighted more than 1000 kilograms. Although the record is disputed, the longest snake ever recorded was a green anaconda, with a length of 11.5 meters. The African Rock Python is the biggest African snake, with a length of 9.75 meters.
