Strange and hyperactive snake?

My female 8ft burm has these strange habits of becoming extremely anxious to get outside of her cage, especially if she has been out for a bit and I put her back in. I just cleaned her cage, gave her fresh water, and as soon as her snout touched the fresh bark, she immediately turned the opposite way and tried forcing herself out of the cage, slithering up my arm. She has always had very active streaks; for hours she will roam her cage, which isn't necessarily small. She has a steady 10 day eating pattern, and just ate recently. Any comments concerning this?

Also, I also feel like she can get in apprehensive, upsets moods, and doesn't like to be touched. But, normally, 95% of the time, she is the most friendly, outgoing creature. Anyone experience similar behavior?

Thanks!
