When this was posted on Reddit, people explained that the cat probably sees the snake as prey, and so brings it to the place where he/she eats prey.

I thought cats were scared of snakes and that’s why they jump from cucumbers.

Cats are actually pretty good at dealing with snakes thanks to their quick reaction. Though it's not a guarantee.
