She tastes freedom for a second, but in a strange place, strange smells, etc. Of course she is defensive.
Think nothing of it. I bet she's a young snake. All's well. Never fear, she'll be fine next time you handle her.

i have a pair that are like that. Did you have mouse scent on your hand when you took her out of her cage. I have a female that like to bite on the occasion I just dont handle all of my snakes alot a few times a week.
