Not exactly sure what it is, looks like a white worm/eel/snake. Quite small, around 10-12 inches in size, constantly swimming in a puddle of water next to a river.

Thanks, @Scott. Looks similar to the photo in the link you gave :)
I doubt this is a reptile. Some sort of (aquatic) worm I'd guess. One type that may merit investigation is a gordian or horsehair worm from the phylum Nematomorpha . Here's something perhaps similar (and unidentified) from the US. http://www.fishpondinfo.com/photos/other...
