First thing first. Snake came to your house or toilet to look for food or water. Therefore, the first step is to get rid of rodents around your house.
Next is to block the entry points. Seal all potential entry points around your home like cracks, gaps, or holes in walls, foundations, doors, windows, and around pipes leading to the bathroom.
Next, check if the protective covers on roof vents and pipes are still there. Snakes often enter through roof vent pipes connected to your plumbing. For the toilet pipe specifically, consider a multi-flap valve (a one-way device that lets waste out but prevents entry from the sewer side)
Next, maintain a dry and clean bathroom environment. Snakes are attracted to moisture and prey like rodents or insects. Fix leaks, ensure good ventilation to reduce humidity, and clean regularly to eliminate food sources. If you have a septic system or soak-away pit, cover it securely and keep it rodent-free.
Finally, it is very difficult for snakes to get to your WC porcelain like this. The chance of it happening is less than 0.1%. Therefore, don't be scared. Just take precautions.
