I'm only guessing but it reminds me of what are called petechial hemorrhages in humans, which have many different causes, one of which is a vitamin C
deficiency. We've mused about Vitamin C's role in healing a snake's skin, so you might try a supplement (one for reptiles!) that contains it, just to see?
My first thought was that your snake bumped into a branch, but from your description, it does appear to be a blood-flow issue...could also be genetic. It
wouldn't hurt to ask a vet but I'd faint if they had ever dealt with this complaint before.This might even be common, but on darker snakes no one sees?
