He looks like a fairly normal wild-type cornsnake to me. The problem is that there are so many morphs in captivity that look like normal wild populations of corns, it is almost impossible to be sure. It does look a little hypomelanistic possibly.

I would suggest posting this on the cornsnake forum to get more information from the cornsnake pros.

It certainly doesn't look like on Okeetee phase corn. They have much more contrasting colors.

Here'a a more typical young "Okeetee" looking snake (from coastal SC). It was a young snake when I found it so the orange in the forebody should replace the brownish in the posterior parts as it matures.
