You should at least be able to have someone teach you how to sex a snake at a reptile show. Some shows do not let you bring animals in unless you are a vendor at the show... plus there is the risk of your snake getting sick/mites from another animal at the show.
In the mean time check out these 2 videos. they are no substitute to having someone teach you, but are a start:
