Do not offer her for free. A small nominal fee is needed to weed out potential snake food seekers.
Put her on petfinder.com and all the other pet search engines you can find on the internet.
Call rescues in your area to work with. Petfinder can help find local rescues.
I also suggest for you to not get another pet. You went and got a piggy 4 months ago. That is a very short time for anything, except a goldfish. This is something that happens all too often and it iritates me you can walk into another store/ shelter and get another one if 6 months down the road you decide you can handle it again. Guinea pigs are for life because they are a life and, only if you decide to keep her and struggle through, do you deserve her.
Please look into these sites, http://www.guinealynx.com and http://www.guineapigcages.com, to learn more about guinea pigs and if you want to adopt out, they can help as well, but I recommend not telling them you got her FOUR months ago.

You should really try to re-home your piggie yourself to make sure she goes to an owner that will care for her properly. You shouldn’t advertise your piggie for “free”. People that own snakes often patrol the classifieds looking for “free” piggies, hamsters, baby rats, etc. to use for feeding their snakes, to save the cost of purchasing them.
Its too bad you can’t figure out a way to keep her.
