Pseustes poecilonotus
Pseustes are very aggressive snakes. This one bit me on the knuckle. Nonvenomous species.
I generally handle snakes if I can't ID them by sight, it's aggressive but nonvenomous so it is safe to handle if you are alright with getting bitten.
Lucky it was non-venomous! How did it come to bite you - did you pick it up? Great series
