He looks GREAT! And good job asking those questions- snakes really do change their appearance a lot before & after shedding- and trust me, everyone new to snakes (& paying attention) is wondering the same things about those "wrinkles" and all. When I got started in snakes, there weren't forums like this anyway- that's why I see this forum as being so valuable- it's a "safe" place to learn what every new keeper needs to know but might be afraid to ask.
