They only bite out of fear or mistaken identity not because they are ill tempered. You have the same chance of being bitten by a dog as you do a boa when handled correctly. Although there is an increased chance of being bit by a boa when it is shedding and after it has eaten so be more cautious with the snake during these periods.
