it breaths faster, you can tell by watching its body, it will become very flighty and start movin very rapidly whilst keeping itself tight and stiff. it will hiss, or can bite.

Hair turns grey , it has several cups of coffee, excessive smoking etc.

Seriously as was mentioned when it starts getting flighty and striking trying to get away etc etc it is stressed.
It will probably also go off its food.

Mel summed it up. Also thw snake hiding and remaining hidden. Too much space could stress younger snakes out also
