It's not all that unusual for some corns to just get a bit annoyed for no real reason, especially if they are quite young. Maybe your corn feels a little insecure or something and wants to be left alone. I would perhaps leave it for a few days to let it calm down, but I'm pretty sure it's nothing to worry about.

A quick note...

If he bites you in the future, try to keep handling him for a few minutes afterward. If it really hurts or puts you off, try using gloves to pick him up. If you put him back in the tank right after he bites you he learns that bites will get him put back in the cage and then will start biting to get his way. And we don't want that!
