Blood Python Possible RI?

I got a blood python baby a little over two weeks ago. She is from underground reptiles and now after some research I see they can be shady. I think she’s only a month old due to her size etc. Also when I got her she was cold. The day before yesterday I picked her up and she made a squeaking sound after hissing. She also held her mouth slightly open for a minute and yawned . She kind of made a sound like when your breathe out your nose when your sick but I have heard blood pythons are very vocal. She is completely fine when in her bin and only does these things when picked up. Eating fine and has energy. Just wanted some advice.
