the first looks like a keel back Tropidonophis mairii
the pic isnt great though be careful its not a rough scaled snake Tropidechis carinatus

and the second looks to be a yellow faced whip snake demansia psammophis
 
First one looks to be a Keelback, Tropidonophis mairii and second snake looks to be a YF Whip Snake demansia psammophis.
Thanks Tim.
 
another pic

Thats what i was thinking, first one being keel back and second being a yellow faced whip snake but thought i would double check, its really unfortunet about the whip snake makes me angry becuase the only reason he killed it was becuase he thought it was a brown becuase it is brown. here is a better head shot like asked, sorry about the crappy photos.

Yes it is a Yellow Face Whip Snake and allot of people kill them for that reason they mistake them for a brown.
Thanks Tim.
