They are nocturnal, try sneaking in late at night. It will be up and about.

How long have you had your BP? While they are "settling in" and getting acclimated to their new home, they are quite prone to spending inordinately long amounts of time in their "hides". They're in a new situation and unsure about their safety, so their instinct is to sit tight in what feels like a safe spot and watch what goes on around them.
Even once they're fully used to their home, BP's are not exactly a "high energy" snake. After eating, expect them to only move from the warm spot to a cooler spot as they attempt to regulate their temperature for optimal digestion. In my experience, when a BP is prowling a lot, it usually means they're feeling hungry and they're looking for prey.

Where did she go???????!!!!!!!!!
I couldn't help but laugh at this question. They are nocturnal. They are ambush predators. Snakes of their nature just don't "do" a whole lot.
