I would suggest waiting longer..
If it has scales, I want it. Period.

Yes, definitely wait longer than 2 days in this case.

This^ Especially since it's a baby corn snake.
If it has scales, I want it. Period.

dunno how big this animal is now... but with snakes, too much room isn't a good thing. Just an FYI

Glad to hear it's doing good. A few things to watch for. Always watch for signs of stress, which alot of newer keepers make the mistake of thinking an active snake is a happy snake. This is not the case, snakes like to conserve their energy. If all their needs are met, and they feel comfortable, they're not gonna be doing a whole lot of moving around inside their enclosure. If they're stressed out (too much light, hungry, uncomfortable temps or humidity, etc..) they will cruise alot, and be looking for ways to get out of there so that they can find someplace that fulfills all of their needs. Not saying they should never move... just saying don't mistake alot of activity for health, it's often not a good sign. Of course when handling them though, they are going to be a little stressed out and therefore move around quite a bit, that is to be expected. Keep up the good work :)
