This is not uncommon when 1.) the snake is stressed, and not hungry or 2.) when the meal is too big for the snake.

Is this the one that has been off feed for a while?
Sometimes when they've not been eating they will go a couple of feedings like they have a hard time deciding if they are really hungry - they'll constrict it, mull it over and then go back to their hide.
