Psammodynastes pulverulentus
The information from Wikipedia says they have a total length of 65 cm but this one was definitely at least 1 meter long. The Common Mock Viper (Psammodynastes pulverulentus) is a species of snake native to Asia. It is one of the few snake species to possess three hemipenes. Mock viper is a small snake (total length up to 65 centimetres (26 in), less in males), but it will form defensive coils and strike in viper-like fashion when threatened
