Never mind, newest redsnow supports 4s

Correction to YiNG_YaNG, Redsn0w currently only support *downgrading* for the A5 chip (4S, 'new' iPad) and Apple has discontinued signing of firmware below 5.1.1, so Koopsy unless you have your personal SHSH blobs saved for 5.01, you cannot use Redsn0w at this time.

Absinthe does still work if you're at 5.01 tho. Here's a workaround for your issue:
