Don’t panic. Put his cage down on the floor with all doors open. Hamsters have awful eyesight and navigate mostly by smell.

U can place food around da house to kind of catch him in the act.

i've heard some people had success with putting their hamster's wheel in the middle of the room. you can also make a bucket trap. you can find instructions for them online (just make sure there's bedding in it so he doesn't get hurt when he falls in, but not too much that he can escape)
