Yup, sounds good to me.
My only difference in opinion is the soaking to remove a bad shed. You can do that, it is tried and true, but I prefer the damp pillowcase method as it is less stressful. To do this take a pillowcase and get it damp with warm water (not dripping, wring it out good) and put a damp towel or two in it as well. Insert snake and tie off the end. Place this on the warm side of your snake's cage cage for an hour or so.
Also you'll want to keep the humidity up in your cage from now on to avoid any more stuck sheds. Normal humidity should be kept between 60-70% and closer to 80% during shedding. Accomplishing this is as simple as misting your snake's cage periodically. Another good idea is giving them a hide filled with damp sphagnum moss. If humidity is still a problem and you're using a tank with a screen lid, you can cover 3/4 of the top with a damp towel. This helps too. In case you've never seen a snake going into shed, their colors will become very drab, their eyes will turn grey/blue and overall look crummy. This is normal. They will look like this for a week or so and then clear up for a day or two and then shed.
