The answer is no. If you are worried about a little scratch from a rat you shouldn't be. As long as you clean it out well and keep it unexposed you should be fine. The only way rabies can be transmitted is if the animal has rabies(this does not include pets)and it bites you and it draws blood. Do not worry and if it makes you feel better,see a doctor.
