They are really easy to tell apart, Collinista snails have a little trap door to stay safe. Stomatella snails on the other hand look like they have shields on their backs, but always have some exposed flesh.

Aha. I guess it might be stomatella then. When I picked it up, some of its shell was still out. Infact, it didn't hide inside.

Thanks
