M20 pilot reported making an unplanned landing; reporting pilot neglected to lower the landing gear.

Narrative:

I landed my mooney 20 in the gear up configuration I reported the incident to the NTSB representative immediately. The FAA representative also made contact with me and requested several items of paperwork. Upon looking in the aircraft logs it has come to my attention that I inadvertently missed having the transponder certification renewed. I will make a strong effort to have this done and make a written reminder for my logbook for this specific task in the future. The flight started out to be a fly-over of a home that I am having built at an airpark. The flight was short in duration and once I flew over the house I made the split second decision to land there for some practice. At this point I was immediately behind the aircraft and was hurrying through my checklist to land. I failed to lower the gear but proceeded to land normally. Once the prop hit and I heard the belly scrape I knew immediately what I had done. Too little too late. In the future I will fly several miles out so I have time to properly execute my checklist for landing.
