The {} placeholder has a meaning for the find command alone. After piping find's output to the mv command, the file name found are supplied via stdin. You'll need something to convert stdin to parameters on the command line, xargs.
Code:
find . -name "*.sql"  -exec grep -l 'procedure' {} \; | xargs mv  -t /head/procedure

BUT - this may lead to problems as in file names with white space.
