Please can someone identify this snake?
It climbed my fence and entered my compound. It moved very fast on the cement floor. I would like to know if it is poisonous or not.

It looks like a harmless garter snake.

Still alive in the second picture. I just weakened it with a bathroom slippers.


**Edited
I have researched on the snake. It is called Buff Striped Keelback.
The buff striped keelback is nonvenomous and totally harmless. When alarmed, it inflates its body causing the bright interscale colours to be exposed. Sometimes, the snake flattens and narrows its head to form a hood. This behaviour sometimes causes the species to be mistaken by laypersons for a baby cobra.
I wouldn't have killed it if i had known it is non venomous

Na wa o

Just thank God and fumigate the environment

Such a beautiful snake

A man was telling me today that Snakes are not poisonous during day time except 7pm - 7am . He sounded so sure and confident

Lalasticlala pls forgive the killer, he doesn't know that this is too premature for you!

Please don't kill that lovely snake...it uses it's mouth just to bite and not for gossip so I wonder why you don't want it in your compound.

I'm saddened that you have already weakened it.
Just put Lucozade boost in a stringe and feed it...you'd be amazed at what an amazing pet your village people sent to you.

We call it "onye-ozi" in my place; the ancestors send it our way when they've began missing us so much in the spirit world.
One encounter with them and you'd have a face to those forefather's names you always heard.

Their confidence when they advocate for snakes is just so annoying and irritating.

Unnecessary grammar mixed with little touch of phony and insha allah!

Tell them to touch the snake while alive, they won't, but will tell you snakes aren't poisonous and venomous, but friendly and single looking for relationship.

God!!!!, may I never encounter anything crawling animals in my sojourn in this life

nowadays na ignorant people dey more bold & confident.

I had seen this type of snake before. It could be dangerous and agile. It crawls very fast and you can miss it just in the blink of an eye.

It is called a Garter snake.

Sometimes you might meet fallen angels in human form.

Na WA o, na night be this na

Snakes scare the hell out of me, harmless or not. To stand near a death one sef, wahala let alone stand close to a "weakened one"

Saw that new trend of snake massage in Egypt and I could only applaud those who have the mind to go for it.

Would like to know which is this one too

Snake thread! if Lala no push this thing enter front page, make lala prick stand again.

According to Nwaamaikpe you just killed a pet sent from the great beyond
Snakes make good companions but not for me though

Such a beautiful snake
