I currently live in North Carolina. I'm looking to purchase a black rat snake, which is native here, from a petstore online.

So far I've not been able to find anything saying I need an importing permit or health certificate.

Can anyone confirm this?

Personally, I would never buy from a pet store, on-line or otherwise, the quality of the animal is lacking more times than not. You would get better results from a breeder (99% of the time)

I know, man. I'm not a fan of putting a snake through trauma of shipping either. I searched around and I cannot locate any breeders with adult black rat snakes for sale. The only one I found was out of stock, and won't have any more because they're shutting their businesses down.
 
Shipping isn't really an issue, most snakes do fine being shipped; most pet stores don't take the best care of their reptiles, mostly due to not having experienced help.
Try going to the classifieds here and looking.
