He is in the pre-conventional level, specifically in level two.

Explanation:

As the name implies, in the pre-conventional level children have not internalised moral conventions. That means they judge an act's morality based on immediate consequences.

While stage one is obedience and punishment-driven, stage two is self-interest driven. The individual only considers what is convenient for them in a direct manner (i. e. regardless of the socal implications).
