Well, my favorite color is green, and I LOVE playing tribal, especially in casual play. This deck features tons of tutoring (all the green one's that I know of), lots of tribal buffs, mana acceleration, and a little bit of recursion. I haven't actually built it yet; I want to get the list right before i dish out $75-100 or so on singles.
Why is Sosuke your general and not Seshiro? Sosuke pumps all your snakes by +1/+0, and his second ability doesn't even help snakes. Seshiro, on the other hand, gives your snakes a whopping +2/+2, and provides insane card advantage when you play snakes.

I agree completely with this. Seshiro provides a lot more bang for your buck for an extra two mana.
Also, to do deck tags, go [DECK*] Insert Decklist Here [/DECK*]. Make sure you take out the asterisks so the tags will work. There should also be a place to automatically insert the decktags for you; roughly just above and to the right of the smilies (at least when I view it on my computer).
Next, the suggestions:
Like Slivortal said, change your general to Seshiro (does much more with your token generators.
1 Rhys the Redeemed is NOT allowed in your deck since your general is mono green and it has a white mana symbol in it's mana cost and activation costs. You could run Doubling Season instead, although it's not budget.
I think I'd rather see a mana searching elf over Llanowar Elves... something like Wood Elves or Farhaven Elves. They all accelerate by one mana, but the latter two elves thin your deck (and you don't lose the mana bonus if the creature is killed).
Steely Resolve kinds of hurts your plans with Whispersilk Cloak. Plus it's only your general that you're trying to protect (not random tokens) so I would suggest Lightning Greaves over the Resolve (unless Deathbringer Thoctar is big in your area, that's one of the only reasons I could understand needing shroud for your tokens).
I'm really particular about my mana effects in EDH and I don't like 1 for 1s, I prefer something that gives you more in return...
Kodama’s Reach-good
Extraplanar Lens-I don't like it because if they blow it up (artifact removal is rampant in EDH), then you just Stone Rained yourself. I'd suggest Gauntlet of Power.
Nature’s Lore-not for me... you have Explosive Vegetation.
Urza’s Incubator-seems nice, but has it done much for you? The effects you want extra mana for aren't being reduced by this so I'd consider running Worn Powerstone instead.
Far Wanderings-I've debated over this for a while, but I'm not a fan... I'd prefer Gilded Lotus.
Rampant growth-could be Thran Dynamo.
Sol Ring-good

With Endless Swarm in your deck, you're going to want to have a Reliquary Tower.

You have Recollect and Regrowth, but no Restock???
Wear Away seems like it has NO benefit in your deck (nothing to splice)... should be Krosan Grip.
Fog should be Moment's Peace, if you really want a "Fog" effect in your deck.
I don't get why you'd want Hickory Woodlot... EDH have long games and you have a LOT to do with your mana... why lose it after two uses. Nonbasics I would suggest: Temple of the False god, Blasted Landscape, Jungle Basin, Mosswort Bridge, Pendelhaven, Slippery Karst, Tranquil Thicket, Terrain Generator, Thawing Glaciers, Vesuva, Yavimaya Hollow, Zoetic Cavern (can even be mana accel!), and if you can get them, Gaea's Cradle, Maze of Ith, and maybe Deserted Temple. Maybe Mutavault and Mishra's Factory, but those are probably not necessary (actually Mutavault works with your Snake theme).
Forgotten snakes:
Boa Constricter, Hornet Cobra, Kashi-Tribe Warriors, Marsh Viper, Matsu-Tribe Birdstalker, Orochi Leafcaller (not much point in EDH mono green), Sabertooth Cobra, Sasaya, Orochi Ascendant (there's some green ways to up the land count in your hand like Seek the Horizon, along with Journeyer's Kite, Armillary Sphere, and such).
