Are you sure its a week old? What are you housing it in? If it doesnt eat today, wait 3 days, and then put a pinkie in with it and leave the snake for a few hours in the dark.

I'd personally leave it alone for a week, with the exeption of changing its water daily.
That way it can settle in and get used to its new surroundings and smells.
Then I'd try feeding again in a week
.

in your other thread you said you have had it 2 days, but its a week old, so you got it when it was only 5 days old??!? most sellers will not let their snakes go until they have had between 3 and 5 feeds.

I think it is still unsettled from the move, leave it for a week then feed it.
