Before selective breeding was in vogue, the snake in the photo was typical of the pueblans bred in captivity. The black head & wide bands (almost equal in width) are defining traits. Neither Andeans nor Hondurans have them.
This link has a photo of a Pueblan & an Andean:

It does at first look very pueblan but the give away is the small band of white on the snout. It is actually a honduran. Check out this honduran breeders photos.
