We study the existence of a solution of controlled stochastic differential equations remaining in a given set of constraints at any time smaller than the exit time of a given open set.We also investigate the small time attainability of a given closed set K, i.e., the property that, for all arbitrary small time horizon T and for all initial condition in a sufficiently small neighborhood of K, there exists a solution to the controlled stochastic differential equation which reaches K before T.
