I have a Mexican Black Kingsnake named Pepe.

He looks exactly like this one:

He's about 3 1/2 feet long right now and probably won't get much bigger.

I always feed him live mice in a separate cage from where he lives. When I first got him I would put the mouse into the cage that he lives in, but there are too many hiding places in there and it would be high drama watching the snake chase around the mouse and the mouse trying to hide everywhere.

I've only seen him swallow a mouse tail first once, and that was when the mouse was pretty small it didn't cause any problems. But usually after killing the little guy, he searches all around for the head before trying to swallow him.
