Sounds like it is having a very hard time adjusting. Make sure its environment is ideal. Temps should be average 82 degrees in cage and a slightly warmer basking spot, and humidity should be a Minimum of 80% but 90-95% is better during day. Nightime temp should be about 75-78 and humidity can be 60-70%. Make sure it has 12 hours of light and 12 hours of dark. If any of those are not ideal it can cause them not to eat! I dont know what kind of setup you have but fresh air flow is very important but hard to do maintaining proper humidity. The best thing to do is get a mister system or a fog machine like the repti fogger by zoo med. Even with a fog machine it is still important to spray the snakes twice a day as they often drink more water off their coils than their water bowl. I wouldnt handle it for now until you get it eating.
I would try its next feeding after a few days of leaving it alone completely about an hour after you shut off the lights. I would just leave a mouse in the bottom of the tank and hopefully it will be gone by morning. Dont stay and watch or keep checking on it as it may make it nervous. If a mouse doesnt work, you can try a dwarf hamster, they are like candy to stubbon emerald tree boas and green tree pythons.
So double check everything that I mentioned. Hope he eats for you soon. I know how worrisome it can be!
