its the end of the rainy season and we were clearing the tall grasses within our hostel boundaries. And the person who was cutting the grasses found it. Good eyes for his part and good luck for this snake as it escaped the blades of the grass-cutting machine. :) but the sad part is he has to let go of his kill (calotes versicolor) a garden lizard.

Thank you everyone for your appreciations. :)
Yes, it was definitely angry and stressed because it had to let go of its food (a garden lizard) which it regurgitated upon disturbance by us clearing the tall grasses growing around our hostel. But it was released safely into a nearby bamboo thickets, where it vanished immediately due to its amazing camouflage. :)
It is a slender but a long snake. Not quite large. It is the defensive posture where it tries to look terrible by opening its mouth wide open. You can also see the little fangs at the middle of its mouth. Due to the place of its fangs, its called rear-fanged snake. It is considered mildly venomous. If an adult human being is bitten, he or she gets a mild swelling with little bit pain.
she looks angry, amazing!
