Somebody help! Something's wrong with my snake! :(

Yeah. Sounds like she's just feeling insecure and not aggressive. Does she attack you at all? In and out of the cage? Attacking outside the enclosure is aggression. Striking only in the enclosure is being defensive. 40 gallons is pretty big. I would only keep established adults in one.

Just clutter up your tank more. Maybe even cover 3 sides of the tank with black paper or a background. The clear glass can be scary for a small snake.
And maybe even use a tank divider to make the enclosure smaller until she grows into it.

I've been sick with pneumonia and am strapped for cash this month but I'm gonna be trying to get her what she needs. She has hissed and tried to nip me outside the cage. I mean, there's maybe only 16 inches of space from obstacle to obstacle, which is in general the amount of free space (and then there's the walls they're propped up against), she's got plants she likes, her water bowl takes up a good deal of room (like a foot long).

Oh no, I mean driftwood type log. It has no openings.
