A snakes hide is a secure place...if it is hiding leave it alone...a hiding bp is a happy bp...also snakes dont like being "tickled" they TOLLERATE us handling them

Okay then is it normal for him to always be in his hide?

Very. As the previous responder said, if they are hiding, they are happy. That's the general rule anyway. If they are always out of their hide, you should investigate.

My sweet python Pablo!!
Since I had my Pablo I never heard him hiss. I heard him sneezed once. That was after I gave him a bath. My Pablo loves to hide in his half log and if I put in his branch log he never gets out, I have to wiggle him out. One time when it was feeding time he was in his branch log and I HAD to place his pinkies at the entrance o it but he didn't move until the pinkie went into his log. I think that was his first lazy day.

Pinkies are much to small for a ball python. Hatchlings are started on fuzzy or hoppers, may want to move up sizes.

You were tickling her!? Why? 
Reach for the stars, and if you don't grab them at least you'll fall on top of the world.

I'm glad some one else tickles their snake too. I tickle mine on her scutes or her back to let her know it's me, not prey. Silk tolerates it. She'll come investigate who it is, too.
