Ahaetulas are fast moving snake too..
it is also considered low/medium venomous snake, its bite might cause swell or just itchy feelling, depends on the amount of the venom and our body's condition, if we're in a fit condition the bite might cause no effect.

Yeah, these are very similar in appearance. This is very closely related to the incredibly invasive Oxybelis aeneus. I don't know much about Ahaetula but Oxybelis are pretty fast moving and can cause localized swelling from bites.
