If you plan to keep her as a pet, please do get her seen - because you're going to need to get her a buddy rat as well, and you need to make sure they're both healthy. Rats do much better in pairs (two girls or two boys).

Most all of my rats are creamed hoodies (as well as being dumbo's).
Or it can be this too. But I would wait a couple days and see if it stops. Check her over and see if she has mucus. If so then chances are she's sick.Check her ears and eyes as well.
