Snakes normally bite for two reasons. (1) for food, or (2) out of fear against a perceived threat.

You just have to wait her out till she figures out that you are neither of the above. Sometimes it takes young snakes a while to figure out their surroundings.

Of course, I have seen snakes that never seemed to figure that out. Or some just might not want to be handled by anyone at any time, and are just telling you to back off the best way they can.
