But the phiddipus you're talking about has a black head...and also the abdomen of your spider has pinkish red colour....maybe you've found a rare jumper! :D

Iridescence could be from sunlight Ashutosh, I cannot find any other that looks closer to the ID!

It is probably a jumping spider.....and seems beautiful! If you've taken other pictures of it,do add them :)
