That is definitely not an albolabris. I agree with greg.
If you know the localitity of the snake, that would confirm its id, but from first glance, I would say it is a Langkawi pope's pit viper. Only the popes found from that island in Malaysia have the red ventrolateral line stretchhing all the way to the eye. To my knowledge, this species has not been classified yet and is still lumped together with popeia popeirum. Wolgang Wuster would probably have more details.
