The West Indies is home to the world's smallest snake, the Lesser Antillean Threadsnake, which could slither through a pencil if the lead were removed.

My adult Red-bellied, nine inches, unknown sex, wild caught. Saw it sunning itself on a deck, at first i thought it was a worm then it started to move, I was shocked. Eats red wigglers. Name is The Worm...
Edit: This is the smallest I've seen personally. Why is this thread in python forums?

I've caught a couple of sharp-tailed snakes and they were pretty tiny, around 5-6 inches. Also thought it was a worm til it stuck out its tongue.

The Brahminy Blind Snake (Ramphotyphlops bramina) at only 4 to 7 inches (10 to 18 centimeters) long as an adult. It was introduced to Florida from Asia. It is known to be A-sexual meaning it does not need a mate to reproduce. It is blind and its front end looks just like its back end, and it lives mostly underground and eats termites and ant larvae.
