The best food is frozen, as this is easily obtainable, and safe for the snake. Freezing will kill any nasties on/in the prey item, and allows you to keep a stock of food rather than continual trips to the shop.
A hatchling Burmese python will eat a medium mouse, or a small rat. As the snake grows so does the food. Larger snakes can eat adult rats, then rabbits, and should it need to, piglets, lambs and goat kids are the next size up. Chickens and other birds can also be fed occasionally, but should not be the staple of the diet, because they lack the nutrition found in mammals.
Live food should never be fed. this is stressful on the prey item, and can lead to serious injury, or death of the snake, and is not necessary on this species, as 99% will readily take frozen, and the few that don’t can be tempted with a prekilled, and then weaned onto frozen. If the snake refuses rodents, then offer a bird. There are other techniques available also that eradicate the need for live food.
http://www.petsuppliesplus.com/AnimalCare/Reptiles/burmesepython.htmDietFeeding ScheduleYoung Burmese Pythons should be fed 1-2 appropriately-sized rodents once a week. Feed adults one large food item such as a rabbit, or 2-4 smaller animals such as rats every 2-3 weeks. Owners should exercise care not to overfeed pet Burmese Pythons.
A great care sheet:
