Your profile says you currently live in Pakistan, is this the case? Most of us are familiar with North American species, so we may not be able to get you a positive identification.
However, considering the blunt nose and tail of that snake, I think you have stumbled upon a harmless and relatively hard to find blind snake. Blind snakes spend most of their time underground and look more like worms than snakes. There are four species of blind snake in Pakistan, including the Brahminy blind snake (Ramphotyphlops braminus), Ahsan's blind snake (Typhlops ahsanai), slender worm snake (Typhlops porrectus), and Typhlops madgemintonai which consists of two subspecies. T. m. madgemintonai is Madge's blind snake, and T. m. shermanai is Sherman's blind snake.
I have to be honest though, I pulled this information from wikipedia. You may want to do a Google Image search for each of the species and subspecies listed above to get a confirmed identification. In any case, I think you're pretty lucky to have stumbled upon a type of snake I've never seen! Most blind snakes stay small, there's a chance you actually have an adult rather than a baby.
