Land snail?
This is a Philippine Helicostyla, H. pithogaster I believe, though H. daphnis is a possibility.  These species have distinctive periostracum when alive (fine diagonal lines in H. pithogaster, encircling bands in H. daphnis) but once the periostracum has been removed they are more difficult to tell apart.
