IMO it looks more darwin like than coastal, but there are so many variations out there even in the wild. I'd go and ask the pet shop where you got it from & look at the parents, never know. Definately don't think bredli. The patterns are more Darwin (NT) carpet, could be the runt of the litter!

The majority of keepers cannot trace their snakes back to wild caught origins and so rely upon what they are told by "where they got their snakes from". I believe some, and Irepeat some not all breeders, keepers or petshops are not sure what the animals are and so the confusion is perpetuated.
Our original Darwins came from reptile rescues within 100km of Darwin, mainly around Humpty Doo and I have seen hatchlingsfrom them, that look like the one pictured, but I have also seen hatchlings that throw like back and gold banded animals and some that throw towards black and white Cape Yorks. In any population there is diversity.
That snake looks like a great pet!

Wokka's got the right idea, it will make a nice pet.

its clearly a morelia idontknowus tohardtotellus
id say costal at first glance tho but it doesshow some destinctive bredli and darwin patterns. (wich doesnt mean anything really) point is your never going to be more than like 65% sure what its liniage is.
thats what i like to call a pet snake champ not worth breeding. and if you do decide to breed with it anyway sell the snakes as what they are potential x'd carpet pythons

So the male i got from you originated from around the Humpty Doo area Wokka.By the way he is doing extremely well,he is close to 5.5foot and weighs 1.5kg,he is a very placid animal.
