Need help with possible id of snake

[Chyka]

Hey all. Well im currently down in Moorebank, NSW, and today while walking around the scrub i came within two metres from a pissed off snake. Now my description im about to give wont be too good, but i just thought someone might know something about snakes in the locality. There's been a lot of sitings of red bellies so when i first saw it i assumed it was that, but i stood there for a bit waiting for it to leave, and i noticed it was completely black, no cream or red underneath. It was a bit agitated cause i accidently disturbed it, so it was flattened out a bit, but its head seemed to be kind of like an arrowhead. I was in soft green grass about knee height. Also when it left it more did short whips, kinda like jumping, rather than slithering along the ground. Like i said, lame description but i didnt have a camera.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

How could you see it's belly? it would of been a RBB.

wonders how you can come to that conclusion too......it may have been several types ...eastern browns can be very dark to black ,small eyed may have a very reduced colouration underneath the belly,green tree snakes can look very dark ......the possibilities are many ...hope next time your out wandering round you can grab a few pics

+1 could have been anything just becuase it was black does not mean it was a RBB....
