No correct guesses yet! Keep trying
It would be wonderful if it was a baby Durango snake
Is it a Philodryas olfersii?
That is a really good guess @erie-herps because she wrote a care guide on them 
- Edit - correction I was wrong, I thought that was paradise flying snakes

Now that you mention it… that might be the snake, the patterns and scales seem to mach and we know she keeps them.

either paradise flying snake or maybe even some sort of kukri snake?
Huh I never really thought about how different species have different sheds. Is it the pattern or the shape that would give away the species? (Or both)

Personally I would say both because scale formations on the head are pretty distinct from snake species but also the pattern could break up species too.

Man the head scales look kind of like a False Water Cobra but the eye caps look huge in comparison. I got nothing
