No, if you wanted a big snake you should of looked into gettin a full sized snake when you bought one :D
Over-feeding would just cause obesity rather then rapid growth. Growth takes time.

HOW DARE YOU! YOU WOULD PUT YOUR SNAKES HEALTH IN JEOPARDY TO MAKE HIM BIGGER! YOU SHOULD JUST FIND A NEW HOME FOR HIM NOW BEFORE YOU KILL THE POOR THING! JUST OVERFEEDING IS BAD FOR HIS HEALTH, BUT PROTEINS AND MEDICATIONS AND CRAP! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU! THINK ABOUT STEROIDS! ARE THOSE GOOD FOR PEOPLE?! WHY WOULD SOMETHING SIMILAR BE GOOD FOR A SNAKE?! iF YOU CONTINUE TO OVERFEED YOU WILL SHORTEN YOUR SNAKES LIFE AND DIMINISH IT'S HEALTH AND EVENTUALLY GET IT REALLY SICK, RESULTING IN HEFTY BILLS FROM THE VET OR DEATH OF THE SNAKE! THINK ABOUT THIS BEFORE YOU CONTINUE! WOULD YOU DO THINGS LIKE TO THIS TO YOUR CHILD, WHETHER YOU HAVE ONE OR NOT!

Rapid growth in reptiles is usually really, really bad news- metabolic diseases, blown out or stressed organs, etc.
