What films can be termed under this nature?
Malick obviously. Haven't seen anything from Alain Resnais. So you be the judge and list some films.

Yeah I guess the recent Malick would come close to being defined as such, though I would argue of the Tree of Life has a bit too much underlying narrative structure to fully fit. Then I guess you could probably argue that of basically all of them. But Resnais as you mentioned, at least with Last Year at Marienbad you could argue that. I would also argue, for something more recent, argue that Jackie at times contains elements of this, as the editing seems much more based on an internal, emotionally based logic, as opposed to a time/narrative based one.
Man with a Movie Camera perhaps? I won´t defend that if anyone disagrees though, because I guess it might be really qualified to be so considering it is a very external film.
It is worth discussing here the diffrence between whether it being in the cinematic language itself as opposed to imagery and storytelling. For example something like Jodorowsky´s The Dance of Reality, I could see there being a decent argument for a certain sense of stream of consciousness, even if the cinematic language is fairly banal.

Inland Empire. It was literally written as it was shot by Lynch, who drew from his own dreams.

Tarkovsky's The Mirror fits, right?

I think Arrival could count. Aside from the passage in the middle narrated by Jeremy Renner, pretty much the whole movie is based on Amy Adams' perspective and memories.

Fellini can often feel stream of consciousy. The Big Lebowski for a more out there mention.

brakhage most of the more impressionist avant-garde people in general Stole my mention... I'll have to drop some others then (applying stream of conciousnes in widely different ways): Posession Lessons in Darkness/Fata Morgana The Forbidden Room (and most post 2000 stuff by Maddin but this encapsulates it the best) Slacker Wings of Desire Paprika Russian Ark Porto of My Childhood Rivette also definitely works with this but I'd argue he's mostly about the conflict between stream of conciousness and a more traditional, forced narrative (this is really well illustarted in Celine and Julie go boating actually).
