I believe the only way is by looking at the base of the tale, males will have a hemipenal bulge whereas female will not.

From Adcham.com:
(http://www.adcham.com/html/husbandry/glossary.html#H)

Hemipenal Bulge. The bulge at the base (proximal end) of the tail base due to the presence of the male;s hemipenes. The presence or absence of a hemipenal bulge is often used to sex animals in species that are otherwise sexually monomorphic (q.v.).

and...

Hemipenes. The paired sex (intromittent) organs of male reptiles including snakes and lizards. The hemipenis actually unrolls (inside out) during tumescence. When fully erect it may have various types of spines and hooks on its outer surface.
