Another thing, I wouldn't handle him until he starts eating for you. As calm as he might be, handling can be stressful, especially for younger snakes. Just do what you need to do around him (cleaning, feeding, giving water) only when it's needed, otherwise leave him alone. Frankly, snakes could care less if you handled them. They seem to prefer to be left alone. If you're handling him to get him used to that, don't bother with that for now, just focus on getting him to eat first. You can worry about the rest later.
