Should I be concerned
We got a hatching that was just hatched on 6/15/14. He has since shed once and has eaten a pinky rat every week but he has yet to poop except when he shed. He doesn't seem to feel hard or seem like he needs to go but I was just seeing if this is something we should be concerned about

No worries. Some will hold it back for weeks. Perfectly normal. Common to poop immediately after a shed.

You're underfeeding that baby. Hatchlings can take rat fuzzies or even small pups.
Get a kitchen scale and weigh your snake. Feed 10-15% of his body weight every 5-7 days until he reaches 500 grams, then offer him a small rat weekly.

He eats what my rat guy calls plumper pinkies. They are just starting to get fur and he eats them every 7 days. Unfortunately I don't breed my own rats so I am dependant on when my rat guy is available

Look into having bulk f/t feeders shipped to your house if he's unreliable, there are several vendors in Florida so shipping shouldn't be too bad.

Re: Should I be concerned
I don't feed f/t none of my other snakes take them, I have tried many times throughout the 1.5yrs of owning them. I have one rat breeder in my area that always has live but he works odd hours
