I think DD knew Harry would do the wrong thing, like kill SS or
something because, obviously, Harry doesn't know enough, yet.  I think
either DD and SS had discussed SS AKing DD in any situation that might
blow Snape's cover, OR Snape acted to save himself w/o DD's order, but
I don't think DD expected it (DE's in the castle) to happen that
night.  Malfoy hadn't told Snape about the cabinet, so DD didn't know
about it either.  So, freezing Harry was the best way DD saw at that
moment to keep Harry from interfering in what might be a harmful (to
the plan or to Harry) way.
