Here's a good video on one non-invasive sexing technique for younger snakes. I assume it's very reliable (although nothing is 100% accurate), since I've heard of other breeders doing this as well.

‪How To Sex A Baby Boa‬‏ - YouTube

For what it's worth, I tried it on my young Jamaican boa that's supposed to be a female. I didn't feel any bumps that would indicate hemipenes, so I think she really is a she.
