You can use the package dbms_metadata.get_ddl to get the create statement that includes constraint definitions.
Code:
set long 1000 lin 1000
select DBMS_METADATA.get_ddl ('TABLE','TABLE1') FROM DUAL;

Once you have the create statement, just change all constraint names (should be unique) and run it.
