Looks like a hypo boa (bci / common boa). I just picked one up at a show about a month ago. They get about 5.5 -7 feet long (females will be a good bit heavier / longer than males). They will also eventually need a 4' x 2' x 15"+ cage (more if a female).
Be careful with feeding. You should feed items no larger than the widest part of the boa and it should not leave a lump. Boas also need to eat less often than other snakes as they age (1-1.5 weeks for babies, from 1.5 years on, every 2 weeks, some adults go every 3 weeks between meals). The boa should have a "loaf" shape (like a loaf of bread) if it is getting round, it is too fat.
Care similar to BPs, but slightly lower temps (88f hot spot, high 70's ambient). Similar humidity to a BP as well.
Currently keeping:
1.0 BCA 1.0 BCI
1.0 CA BCI 1.1 BCLs
0.1 BRB 1.2 KSBs
1.0 Carpet 0.5 BPs
0.2 cresteds 1.2 gargs
1.0 Leachie 0.0.1 BTS

Re: Snake ID?

Where are the pics of Henry? I only see the two you posted above in your gallery.
Upload the pics to a photo-sharing site like Photobucket. Once you do that, if you hover over the pic you uploaded there, you can click the cog-wheel in the upper right corner and choose "get links". Then select the IMG code for forums/boards. Simply copy and paste that link into your post here.
