It helps in my experience to hold the snake from underneath and off the ground. let it get coil holds around your fingers/arms.
If it feels like your a tree and secure, it should be fine.
Give a little time and watch to see if it relaxes a bit and explores.
If it does give it more branches (fingers/another arm) to move to
I find on the lap is not he best. it makes them look for ways down. Stand up first, Be a tree.
Laps can come later.
Just my opinion, Kind of applicable to most snakes.
