It is a tiger snake. Tiger snakes are very poisonous being ranked abt #3 in the world.

For others I was quoting what the law is in these parts. (Oz)

The maxim remains that snakes here with a single exception are not agressive (even though most of ours range from deadly to mildly poisonous) and having been a collector/observer all my life I can speak with some authority.

end of story.
