Also, is there any outsider, specially demon/devil, that have a serpent-like shape that could be summon by means of the known spells or any other means like a ritual or any other? I didn't want to make a thread out of this but I couldn't help it, I keep wondering about it and is a long search through all the monsters supplements available these days.

If you ask me, the monster of the cover of FC1 looks like a Marilith (Monster Manual).

I know is a Marilith, so thanks, I was curious about if it were an specific Marilith or Shaktari 'Queen of the Mariliths" ruler of the 531th layer Vudra. My other question stay the same. Also, is there any outsider, specially demon/devil, that have a serpent-like shape that could be summon by means of the known spells or any other means like a ritual or any other?

Mammon, lord of Minauros the 3rd layer of Baator. He's got a serpentine lower body. Geryon had a serpentine lower body as well, but he's dead, devoured by Asmodeus, with only tattered remnants of his essence remaining in Vestige form Merrshaulk takes the form of a giant serpent (a deity who may or may not, depending on the source, also be an Abyssal Lord). Lillendi (CN/CG outsiders) have serpentine lower bodies, though they aren't fiends.
