Evil? I wouldn't consider a harmless little ball pyhton that can barely kill a mouse evil lol. why wear gloves? it doesn't hurt at all...granted i've been bit by everything from cornsnakes to green tree pythons. but if you want to send her down here lol i'll tame her for ya hahaha jk. yeah, just hold her alot and if you must, wear gloves. when i first got my 4 footer she was really squirmy (she was 4 foot then so no difference)but I just held her by the half part of her and let her calm down...with her I would let her rest in your handand just see whT she does. good luck!

You have to remember that getting bit is all part of the job sometimes. We are very accustomed to being bitten,everything from anacondas to rattlesnakes. handling your snakes frequently to get them used to coming into contact with you helps, but some snakes are just going to be snappy sometimes. Good luck with your ball python.
