Okay, I'm just gonna run down the list of what I see that should be changed.
I'm your post you wrote that you have two hides but in the pic I could only see the one on the hot side. It could of been that I wasn't seeing it sense the pics were small and blurry but if you don't have two hides he needs two hides. One on the cold and one on the hot, they will choose security over right temps so they will stay on the side with the hide even if they are to hot. That log hide is much to large and not secure at all as well. They need hides that fit pretty snug on all sides and only have one opening. You could stuff that one with paper towels or substrate to make it feel smaller but I'm assuming the reason you don't have both hides in there is because you can't fit both in that small a tank.
Ideally you want two hides that are identical as well. After you get that you will need some vines and greenery to fill in the empty space so he feels more secure, he should be able to move from one end to the other without feeling exposed. You can also use an empty paper towel roll and paper towels to achieve this.
As for temps your ambient temps are to low and hear pad is to hot. I would unplug the heat pad, at least until you get a thermostat, and get a heat lamp for now. You'll need one to get the air temp up anyways. You can get the lamp and a nighttime bulb, not a daylight the light will stress him out, at a reptile store or petsmart or something and then get a lamp dimmer from Home Depot or something like that and use that to control the temps. There are other methods like CHEs and such but that is what will be most immediately available to you right now.
As for feeding wait, be patient they can go longer then you would think without feeding and like others have said I doubt he has had his first shed yet which they need to do before they will eat.
Ball Pythons are very picky eaters even under normal circumstances won't eat unless their husbandry correct and this is a special case that will take even more care. It's not impossible but you need to put in the extra work. Research, study the stickies on this forum and learn as much as you can and listen to the advice give to you
