Never play soprano sax like a clarinet - play it like a sax and not like a clarinet and you'll be fine.

The embouchure on soprano sax is more relaxed and remains stable as you go up - never tense up as you go up or you'll go sharp. Also you blow saxes down to pitch as opposed to clarinets that are blown up to pitch.
