The fear of the bite is definatley worse than the bite, especially from one so young. I was the same, and i can honestly say that having been bitten many times by a Darwin around the same age as your Bredli, that
playing with kittens is far more painful ! ! Kittens don't back off.. at least most baby python bites are a hit and run affair, they are being defensive cos they're at the bottom of the food chain
the 'quickly move back' comment you made shows he is nervous. One thing to be aware of, is how you smell, (I'm not being silly) do you use perfumes, body sprays, body washes that he may be reacting too ? their sense of smell is what they rely on, they don't 'hear' in the traditional sense, and their eyesight isn't the best either, so strange smells can make them edgy...
My darwin didn't like bright lights behind me - be it a sunny window or artificial light - all he could see was a large dark blur, once he taught me that he didn't like it, he calmed fairly quickly.
Lose the gloves, you can't 'feel' the body language with them on, just wash and rinse your hands well, and make sure they are nice and dry, you are doing the right thing when you get him out and he's not biting, so now for the next step. and don't 'hold him' he will feel threatened. all you need to do is support and guide away from where you don't want him.
so don't worry about finding the velcro, go find a cute furry kitten and annoy it till it starts fighting back, remember how it feels and then face your python with confidence,
