I didn’t know your story it’s just for your reference.
The 2 native ratsnakes (Ptyas korros and P. mucosus) are actually not ratsnakes. They don’t belong to the ratsnake genus. They still eat rats but they favorites are frogs and toads.
If you find snakes in an urban area, even in parks, that could be something not native. I’ve seen many times of snake escape and also snake release.
The description fits in with the indo-chinese ratsnake, and also many other colubrids.
Laguna city park is surrounded by concrete.. the nearest places likely to be a snake habitat are the Sai tso wan and Cha kwo ling tsuen. but those are just a small piece of greens.
Probably that was not a native species. You know in Hong Kong there are many possibilities of snakes being escaped or released.
