Does not look like a theropod phalanx or bone.

Here is an example of one behind a claw,  typical of others..  The distal end should have ligament pits on either side of the distal ends not seen on yours.  The proximal end should be concave or flattish.

 

Something that small with the rounded ends may not be dinosaurian but reptilian like turtle
