It's an Elapid snake. Elapids have small fixed fangs instead of longer extending fangs.

Elapid snakes have a type of neuro-toxic venom which is generally more dangerous than other snake venom but the Bandy Bandy is quite a small snake so it is not considered dangerous.

Very striking in appearance though.
