Beautiful little anery! They come in all different shades of black and brown and can have a habit of changing shades on you as they grow. I find that many new hatchlings that have that purplish glow to them tend to grow up to be nice dark anerys instead of the browner or lighter versions...but not always!
 
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the purple you are seeing is from the iridiphores (?) in the scales. It creates an iridescent sheen to the surface of the snake that you are seeing.
