Yay! I am getting better with IDing them. I thought a whipsnake of somesort so was on the right track Couldn't see him well but that yellow comma is a distinctive characteristic of the whipsnake.

I had the same thing, thought i must have been a whip snake but didn't know, so I chucked a post up and found it was a yellow face. Lovely little snakes, might look at keeping one or two in the future if they're not too hard....
