what is this?

Mum just called saying she found a snake in the backyard, its between 80cms and 1m long, greyish in colour, very slim.
they live in Westleigh a few houses up from the bush, westleigh for the non local people is in NSW, kinda between hornsby and epping, about 20kms from sydney.

my guess is yellow faced whipsnake, but i thought i'd ask the experts!
