Snake doesn't like being picked up. Calm once out of tank

So my spotted python, a little over a year old, has recently been quite upset whenever I go to pick him up. He tries to escape my hands and moves very fast and wildy, but goes back to being a sweetheart once I've got him out of the tank. This started about 2 weeks ago. Prior to this, he never avoided my hands when reaching for him, and was always very calm. His last shed was fine, he's been eating like a pig as usual. I did move him into a 20gal long tank a month or two ago, but he was acting as normal the first month or so and this issue only recently developed. He's also been very active lately, staying out of his hide for hours on end and cruising around from the early evening late into the night.

I'm sure its fine and that I just need to get back into the routine of handling him more frequently, since school has been keeping me quite busy this semester. Just came here for reassurance
