I am thinking its more of a fungal/bacterial infection. Most likely it does have parasites though, just saying to kill 2 birds with one stone lol. Sometimes internal parasites will have external manifestations though. The lesions dont seem to be anything caused by parasites that would live under the skin. Best of luck to you and your snake and please keep us updated! Also, you should buy "Understanding Reptile Parasites" by Dr. Klingenberg. He just came out with a totally revised edition and its only like $12.00 and its the best $12.00 you could ever spend on a reptile book. Real legit information too, not one of those BS reptile books written by morons lol.
