It's a Yellow Rat snake. They are common on the coastal plain from about mid NC to Florida.

Cool pic! My neighbor killed a black rat snake and shortly afterward, he had a mole problem in his yard. I don't know if it was just a coincidence, but I kid him about it and suggest to him to let the snakes live.

Have them in my barn occasionally, I leave them alone. Not a trace of a mouse to be found.

I don't know what would compel him to kill a rat snake.

They are protected here in Georgia.

I need a few of those seen in the OP around my place. The packrats are very plentiful around here.
