    Bad shed

    After my snake sheded and before I notice a area at the tail region and a bit more up has a line on the inside ( the belly of the snake, or clear side), and it also redish. I thought the redish/pinkish color disappears after a shed..... Anyone know what it can be ?

    Ok, I'm not too clear on your post so correct me if I mistake your meaning. Your snake just finished shedding, but has some retained shed and the belly is still reddish/pink. If your snake just shed, it's possible that you have a beginnings of a thermal burn. Although without being able to see the animal it's impossible to say anything definitively.
