New to snakes - new to here

Hello! I am brand new to owning a snake though I did research for months before buying one. Yesterday I become the proud mommy to a baby snow cornsnake.

So the main reason I sought out this forum... he (or she?) is currently in the process of shedding but the previous owner didn't have the humidty high enough so it's in pieces. I was told to "soak him" but I'm also not supposed to handle him, so... which is more important to follow right now? Leave him alone or move him to soak him? Currently he's basically staying in the hide on the cool side of the tank. Seems to have no interest is going to the other side. I had been led to believe snakes normally stayed on the warmer side more often. Despite my research I find myself very confused. I'm certain I'll have many more questions as time goes on.

This is the best picture I could get before he zoomed into the hide last night.
