Help with snake in my garden

Ah ok. It definitely seems to like flattening it's neck.

Here's the best pick I can find where the scale pattern is clearest. Looking at pictures on the web it does seem unlikely that this is a Mole Snake. :-(

Ok, it's back sunning itself. Are these pics good enough for a positive identification? I've also got a video of it going back into it's hole which I'm uploading to YouTube, but that will take a bit of time with my awesome (not!) upload speeds...

Thanks guys for all your help with this.

Rinkhals for shit sure. If you don't come right, I'll give a no of a mate who'll happily take it away for you.

Ok thanks guys. Snake catcher dude will come round tomorrow noon, hope it will be sunning itself then.

@Brendank, thanks for the offer, I'll get in touch if the snake guy tomorrow doesn't have any luck.

What he said.
Not a snouty, not a mole snake. Not a Mozzie either.
A rhinkals is not a toy either (for most peeps, that is).

Guys don't get all hyper. You don't want the get bitten by a Rhinkals for sure. But it's pretty difficult to. They will try every trick at their disposal before biting. So as long as you don't fuck with it you will be okay.

Don't let the dogs fuck with it either.
