Question kingsnake trust?

Alright, so I have a Mexican Black kingsnake, she's about a year or so old now [I never knew her exact birth date/month]...anyhow, she is doing wonderfully but I wondered if I'd ever be able to "TRUST" her. I really have only ever let her scoot around my hands and arms, since the few times I have let her slither around on the floor for quick moments, she'd pace around a bit slowly and then suddenly take off at lightning speed... I'd usually have something around keeping her 'contained' more or less to a certain area in case she did try and take off, so I easily caught her, no worries there...
But do kingsnakes remain really quick like that their whole lives, or will she 'calm down' a bit with age?
It really doesnt matter to me, as we both seem to agree with how we handle each other [:P] right now, but watching her slither on the floor is such an awesome thing to see... and I've known of people with corns and they would just crawl into their hair and sit there, though I'm not sure how behaviourly similar corns and kings are.

Anyhow, it was just something I was curious about
Any input or experiences would be great to hear!
