always support her with two hands
handle her often so she will used to you (3 times a week or more)
always wash your hands before taking her out
when they are in that S shape they will track every move you make with their head if they are thinking of striking
they almost always bite only when the keeper makes a mistake
feed her in the cage and when you take her out use a hook, if you always do this the snake will instantly know when they feel that cold metal that it is not feeding time

good luck
