The soprano sax is a Bb instrument but it does not have the same range as the Bb clarinet. The lowest note on the soprano sax is the Bb below middle C (written). If there are notes lower than this, you just can't play them.
One solution is to play the whole thing an octave higher, but this might be very difficult if the piece goes very high. Or you could write the whole thing out again in a different key.
