Not a snake expert, my user name has nothing to do with real snakes, but I keep some files on snakes I came across. I never seen this one but after a quick check I think it is a red necked keelback. Must be a young one since with age the strong coloring can fade away.

They are not aggressive but venomous and there is no know anti-venom!

I agree, very nice pictures!

Aah, thank you very much!
