Negotiating Salary as an intern

Is it appropriate to negotiate a salary as an intern? I am curious as I have recently been offered a position as a pharmaceutical company, not too big, but based in Cali. I am only finishing my second year, but I have a fair bit of experience, research experience, and a prior business internship. The salary is a bit low, as I need to save money while also trying to live in Cali without financial support. How feasible is asking for more on my salary without coming across as greedy?
