I have absolutely no idea, there are around 4000 species of snake and this one doesn’t have especially distinct coloration.
The narrow shape of the head and the long, slender body tells me it’s not a species of viper, it certainly is no python (except maybe a young black water python), or boa. It’s active, fast and slender, so personally I think it’s either a colubrid (most likely, colubridae make up about 60% of all snakes worldwide) or an elapid (less likely, but possible)… Am I the only one thinking that the body looks very triangular? Could be a black krait, but they only live in northern India and are most active during the night.
It’s most likely just some sort of black rat snake (Pantherophis obsoletus) or black racer (Coluber constrictor sp.), which are both black american colubrids with a white belly and both constrict their prey. Both are active during the day, great climbers and hunt frogs. So I guess that’s my best guess.

But like I said, I don’t have the slightest idea.
