I just got this little fellow from an aunt.... but she forgot to ask what kind of snake it is so im kinda lost here..... what kind of snake is this???

Its body is about 40 in long and veery veeery thin.... long nose, round pupil, has a light brown color and sof scales.... so.... what's this???

That would be Oxybelis aeneus, the Mexican Vine Snake.

thanx a lot !

My pleasure! In case you don't research that critter like you should, it is an opistoglyph with a mild venom, most effective in immobilizing lizards. Some people may have a reaction to it that could be less than pleasant.
