That is his way of trying to stop you from holding him and if you put him down he accomplished his mission. Put a piece of a worn, unwashed t-shirt in his cage so he gets used to your scent. Wear old clothes and with more acclimation and gentle, unrestrained handling he should stop doing that. Good luck-Bill
