I've never had a small snake, but I'm pretty sure ALL snakes try to find a way out of their containers(vivariums). This is still new for him. Eventually he should slow down his efforts to escape and will relax in his home, but will still try(of that I AM sure).
Keep on your schedule with him, keep his temperatures good, keep his water and bedding clean. If you do that he should not "need" anything else.
 
Perfectly normal behavior. I've had my snake for two weeks now and probably for about the first week he went nutty trying to get out. He'd be active for hours at a time, all over his viv looking for a way out. He seems to have calmed down some cause this week he hasn't been quite as active, he's been hiding more.
 
Probably looking for food (which doesn't mean you should alter your feeding schedule, except are you feeding a baby weekly? That's kind of a long stretch). My babies get fed every five days, and are pretty active on day three, and their activity increases daily till feeding day. Then they digest for a day, then get active again.
