[Snakesitter]

I'd drop the nip step. Usually, a snake will tell you she is uncomfortable by trying to escape or get wriggly (flighty in her case); if so, don't make her nip but put her down. You want her to trust you, not think she has to bite every time she's handled. The time will increase with positive (non-biting) experience -- just be slow and patient with her. If she does bite, however, you are correct to hold onto her for a bit longer.
