The only way to make certain the bat does not carry rabies is to chop off his head and examine the brain. If it hasn't bitten, drooled, or bled onto anyone then it could be turned loose, but one should only take that risk for oneself, and not others. The 10 day quarantine is a valid procedure only for dogs and cats.
I've been vaccinated against rabies twice. Fun times!
