Uh, I think that being patient and getting more comfortable with the snake is the best thing to do. Give yourself time and maybe put your hand inside the enclosure and maybe stroke the snake, but not too much and not too often. Then some day, you can just say to yourself, "Don't be a girl about it" and go in and pick the snake up. The snake will probably be able to tell if you're nervous, so go in there with complete confidence and tell yourself that you're not going to get bit.
