The agency said officers made their "most curious find of 2018" when they discovered a small cloth bag hidden inside the man's pants contained a 16-inch-long boa constrictor.
Investigators said the man did not have the proper documentation to travel with the protected species when he made the attempt on Christmas Eve.
The snake was taken to a reptile rescue in Brandenburg. Officials said the man will be fined.
