Split Second

When i play a spell with split second in an opponents turn, does it mean that they can't play spells for the rest of the turn?

No, it means that he (and you) can't cast spells or activate abilities until the split second spell resolves.

So, for example, if you Sudden Shock his River Boa, he wouldn't be able to respond by activating the Boa's regeneration ability or by casting Counterspell.

Once the Shock resolves, though, you can both play things again.
