I'm sorry to hear about your missing hamster. You could try some cheese attached to a wire and feed it down the holes to see if she's still alive. If she is, she may follow the scent and make her way out.

If you ever decide to get another hamster, please do not use a hamster ball and invest in a playpen. Hamster balls are dangerous and very scary for hamsters. No wonder they try to get out.
A cage needs to be secure to prevent a hamster from escaping, falling and getting lost. No matter how tame they are, hamsters will follow their instincts to explore and forage for food.

I sincerely hope that your hamster will find her way back.
