Looks like JRP - japanese red pine to me.
Looks young enough that depending on your skills could be turned into a decent bonsai. No fatal flaws that I see. may take 5 or more years of growing before the ''final styling'' and moving to a finer bonsai pot. Training pots for the near future.
Wiring JRP - it is not so much that the branches are ''brittle'', they are very flexible. BUT they tear away from the trunk more easily than JBP. Be cautious, about how you anchor and bend the junction of the branch with the trunk.
Back budding - full sun helps. They do back bud, just not as reliably as JBP. They do back bud better than JWP and many other pines.
