I think this might be report as spam

Nope. Spam means to advertise something.If self accepted answers remain continue for some user,then you can report it as Abuse.In this case,no action is required.

it's allowed (if it is for only points)
We came across many profiles where somany self accepted answers were reported.But in this case,he has only one answer that is self accepted.

It is allowed here. e.g. you posted question and got 3 solutions,none of them worked and suddenly you find a way to deal with it,then you can post it and accept it so in future some one visiting it come to know how you solved the issue.
