Looks like benjamina to me but not too sure. Not sure its a proper bonsai either.

nice looking trunk and the root structure shows a lot of promise. Look in to learning proper pruning and repotting of it and it should develop into a nice tree.

I still bet on Ficus Benjamina. Leaving for someone with more experience about Ficus to give final word.

This is not a F.benjamina, I've got a F.benjamina. The foliage is very similar but there is differences. This Ficus is also deciduous.
