It is technically correct English though, just not used as often.

An inclusive list could be described as an exhaustive list.

If "[This] list is not inclusive." then we need to know what it is not inclusive of - it doesn't look like a complete sentence to me, ie incorrect, but grammar is admittedly not by strong suit.

One could write "This list is not inclusive of all available options." but there's a handy shorthand for that "This list is not exhaustive.". One could also write "incomplete" but that has a negative connotation.
