While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.

I would say yes, it's a Braconidae, Cheloninae (the terga seem to be joined).
But I'm not a specialist at all.

I asked Kees van Achterberg (braconid specialist) to have a look at your braconids. It's a Microplitis species (Braconidae: Microgastrinae), one of the six Microplitis species known from Acronicta psi.
