Male Corn is crazy

Hello all. So my male corn snake has been crazy lately. I've done my research and know its because its spring and he's a little wound up. He has stopped eating and is so active, zooming all over his enclosure, trying to escape and the whole nine yards. My concern is that he's going to hurt himself. He keeps climbing up to try to squeeze into the gap between the screen lid and the tank. It usually ends with him falling off of it. So I'm afraid he will hurt himself in a fall or rub his nose raw on the screen. Is there anything I can do to alleviate this? Or am I just a paranoid momma with her first horny teenage boy?
 
I got the same thing going on at my house. He is zooming all over the enclosure. Didn't feed this week. I'm assuming he's looking to breed. When I try to get him out instead of the docile self, he's hell bent of wiggling out of my hands. He's like, stop touching me.!!!!

I"m blaming a horny year old that's 150grams.
 
one of my males is acting the same way,he's eating,but other than that doesn't want to stop moving around his enclosure. poor guy,he's not going to be hooking up with anyone,so hope he settles down soon lol
 
This is how I came to the conclusion that my new (adult) corn is a male - he acted just like this, especially in April. At first I thought he was hunting for food. Bit of a bummer that he is male, because I always wanted to name a snake Eve. Now he is Ki. He has settled down now.
 
So I'm getting worried. It's been over a month that he's been off feed and he's really starting to rough up his scales in his desperation to escape. I just don't know what to do...
