You should have two hides. One on his warm side and one on his cool side.
What do you use to warm his tank? Under the tank heater (UTH). Lights? Do you measure the temerature in his home? He should be around 90 on his warmside, and around 80 on his cool side. I know a lot of pet stores don't stress the importance of proper temperature monitoring. Do you use a thermastat? Sometimes when a tank is uncomfortable for a snake they will move around a lot (although it is probably just because it is a new enclosure).
Don't beat yourself up. We all made some pretty dumb mistakes when we got started, it's wanting to learn and grow for the sake of our snakes that makes us better than people who just don't care.
I'm sure he'll forgive you.

Thanks Gale!
before I get a smaller tank I'll find a way to fix it ^^

The sound of him falling down is pretty loud that's why I get worried...
Thanks Powerspythons!
