As of Patch 5.3, Xan'tish no longer sells this pet. It's possible that the pet will become purchasable again in the future.

This pet is only sold to horde characters. Alliance characters may purchase this pet through a neutral auction house and on occasion through their own auction house.

The Black Kingsnake is a trainable pet in Mists of Pandaria. However, only Orcs and Trolls are offered this option from Battle Pet Trainers. Once learned, all characters will have access to this pet.

I just got this as a result of the Legion "Meat to Pet" transmute, so it's available to Alliance characters that way. There seem to be a fair number on the Auction House as well, probably because of this.

The note at the bottom of the General Tab needs to be updated:

This pet was removed from Xan'tish's inventory in Patch 5.3, but is again offered for sale.

Xan'tish fearlessly tracks, captures, and trains these noble snakes so they will aid their comrades in battle.
