If he is small, he can't do any damage. If he is big however, I recommend starting with a glove. For both cases, keep holing him. Biting is a defensive measure & they will keep doing it until they trust you & realize they don't have to defend them selves. Pick him up several times a day for just a min. or so. He'll be your best bud before you know it. (in most cases) 
Good luck.
