Feeding young Brown dekays snake!?!?!?!?

I joined this site because I NEED feeding advice. My 3 year old brother came in the house holding a little snake and threw it at someone. I ran into the room because I heard the word "snake" and I took it from him. Anyway, I have this young Storeria dekayi (probably 8 inches, I guess thats not THAT young, based on what I know about them) and I don't know how to feed it. I know WHAT to feed it, (worms, small slugs, little bugs) but I tried putting a bunch of worms in the cage right in front of him, but he didn't eat. Then I put him in a small tupperware container (no distractions) with a few worms, and he didn't eat there either.

HHEEELLP ME BEFORE IT DIES!
