Help! Been unable to identify these two impulse buys of mine:

Info:
Origin: China, somewhere
Eats: Earthworms, Slugs, Insects
Size:6-7" Long each
Behaviour: Sluggish and slow, does not react to movement
Temperament: EXTREMELY docile

I am sure that these two specimens are adults because they laid eggs at the shop I got them from. Can anyone ID them?

possibly a red tailed green rat snake but it is tough to say from these pics.
 
A fair attempt given my poor quality pics but probably not, their max size is 8 inches long...they sort of remind me of cat snakes but I'm pretty sure they aren't
 
perhaps a Greater Green Snake (Cyclophiops major)?
 
I cant see pics but the diet, local etc seem right for that but they are,larger than 7".

I dunno since I cant see pics sry

No, they are actually really really small! They're smaller than hatchling corn snakes at adult size...@snakeguy, I don't think so...green snakes are bigger :X

In terms of body size and head shape, these guys remind me alot of Sibon nebulata in green form, except they have large round black pupils instead of slitted pupils.
