Your picture is not clear enough for a positive id.  Planaria have a very distinctly triangular head, if the head is rounded it is some other kind of worm.

Also they have an eerily smooth gliding motion, they just kind of scoot along without any visible means of propulsion.  Its an unmistakable motion, compared to the rest of the entire worm family.
