Carpet python too fast?

Hi forums! I finally got a carpet python, her cage is all set up, and I gave her time to settle down from the move. Now, I want to go about taming her and I've read a few other posts. They say 5-10 minute handling sessions daily. Well my problem is that I can't even get her out of the cage. I would be lying if I said that I wasn't afraid of being bit, but I will be able to tolerate that. Whenever I reach into the cage, she tenses up, which I can imagine would be the normal reaction. But the second I as much touch her or get within an inch of her she completely freaks out. She starts slithering around really fast trying to get away from me, slithering all around her cage. I was wondering how I would even get around to taming her if I can't even get her out of her cage.

TL;DR How do I get my antsy carpet python out of the cage so I can start to get her used to being handled?
