From your post, it sounds like they have been together for more than just a few hours. If you didn't have an enclosure for her ready, you should have gotten one set up as soon as you picked her up. I know I've kept little snakes in my bra and went to walmart and petco and places for things I needed after suddenly picking up/rescuing a snake. (Ladies, let me tell you. Your bra is the best place to keep a hatchling ball python. Warm, enclosed... They just lay all nice and flat and don't even move) Not ideal, no, but it's better than stressing both snakes out and risking sickness for both of them.
