snake
Hi,
It's difficult to tell from the pictures, but it is definitely a venomous snake, most likely an elapid. The belly scales are relatively large and the head is indistinct from the body in elapids like brown snakes, red bellies or taipans for example. Remember even a dead snake is still deadly if you get any saliva in an open wound. So be careful when you dispose of it. Also, native wildlife and cats don't mix too well. Eventually the cat will get bitten if it continues to hunt snakes.
Just my two cents worth
