Trouble with a very brazen snake.

Not too long ago, I posted a thread asking for a bit of advice on what do with my juvenile bloodred corn snake. The advice was helpful, but the situation itself seems to be getting worse. Honestly, I expect a snake to be shy, if not defensive. To me, that's a pretty easy behavior to work around. However, I have the complete opposite with this girl. It's not just a matter of her biting anything that comes in the environment... She's extremely energetic and manages to find her way to the top of the tub before I can even undo the latches. This worries me. If I get bit, it won't hurt me much, but I'm afraid that in her attempts to get food she will manage to make it out of the tub and escape before I can catch her. Being that she isn't even a year old, she could easily slip out of my hands and then who knows what happens.

There may be no solution for the time being, but I'm asking you guys for a bit of help. How can I discourage her from always from coming to the top of the tub? Should I remove the climbing furniture? Or should I utilize another safety precaution in case she makes it out of the tub?
