It doesn't have an Op number, but is listed in the Tematický katalog skladeb Bedřicha Smetany (Thematic Catalogue of Works by Bedřich Smetana) by Jiří Berkovec (Prague, 1999) as JB 1:62.

I believe it's the last in this volume:

Though can't absolutely confirm it. It's cheaper on the publisher's website, with a contents list (that's unhelpful on this particular one). You may want to contact them for confirmation it's the right one.

(scroll down just past halfway).

It doesn't seem to be available free online.

Good to see Bedrich is getting some love.

Cheapest I can find is a digital download:

Something of a rip off, IMO, but....
