Are you feeding in the cage? Usually after a snake feeds it's still in kind of a "frenzy" mode...we feed ours out of the cage and it's normal to let the snake calm down for about 10-15 mins before handling to put him back in it's cage. We picked up one of ours two early to put him back the other day after a feeding and he completely freaked out and he was fine when we took him out of his cage.
 
yeah, a lot of snakes get like that. I had a 5 foot dumerils boa come out of its exhibit at me the other day. She gets 6 live mice and after about the 3rd one she gets a little aggressive...lol
 
Part of the aggression is do to the snake being more vulnerable with a filled belly and thus extra defensive no?
