Baby northern ringneck snakes will either be really tricky, or really easy, I've dealt with a good number of them over the years. What I have found to work best, would be set them up in a "woodland" style terrarium. Room temperature... Usually, soil for the substrate... With many places to hide... Position all the hides so that the snake can hide there, but still be seen, so you know exactly where they are... This will help you. Give it about a week, maybe 2 weeks, of adjustment, and drop a worm near where the snake is hiding. If it's hungry, it will eat.

Or, you could skip all this, and throw the snake in a container with a baby salamander LOL.
