Actually, I think Snape would have been in huge trouble if he had
killed Harry. LV must be seen as the biggest baddy on the block, and
Harry has defied in again and again. He must kill Harry himself to
gain supremacy, and I'm sure Snape understands that. If he'd kill
Harry, Snape would be toast as soon as LV learned about it. No, what
he would and could have done, is reveal Harry was on the tower and
then fail to restrain Greyback.

tried to stop him. Petrified him, but I'm afraid it was already too
late."
