This is normally a breeding thing. I don't know about other people's snakes, but I've never seen a non-sexually mature snake do this. I've seen/experienced this also when they touch something they aren't used to (like if you normally use papertowel substrate and then switch to aspen shavings) or if you hold them a little too tight.
It's nothing to worry about.
