thank you Goody and chebaeague8. :)
Great shot!
What a beauty!
identity confirmed my friends :)
thank you everyone for liking it. :) i have added another pic showing its head shields which may help in identification.
there has been few suggestions elsewhere saying it is "Himalayan Trinket Snake" or "Hogdsons Ratsnake". i also had suggestion of it being "Lycodon jara".
