Roaming the cage and not hiding (especially during the day) is an indication of stress.
Make sure you are reading your temps with a digital thermometer with a probe. Dial, gauge, stick on, and needle thermometers are not accurate.
I would invest in two identical tight fitting hides that are not made of cardboard. Check out your local dollar store for some small opaque bowls and cut a hole in the side.
If you snake is stressed, chances are it won't eat consistently.
Wait a week from the last day you handled the snake and leave it completely alone except for water changing. No handling, no feeding for one week. Hopefully in that time he will become comfortable in his home and eat on a regular basis. Then you can handle him more often
