Cleaning up is ok, it's handling the snake that's best avoided for the first week. Making sure the water is changed and cleaning up leaves your scent in the faun which is good because it will help your snake get used to you.

It's not too quick, it takes roughly a week from feeding to passing, the fact that snakes pass soon after being fed shouldn't lead to the assumption that its what they just ate. The only snake I know of that can pass food in a little over 48 hours is the Russian ratsnake, and that's only because 25 degrees is like 30 to a corn.
