Ok, best I can figure after looking at those pics is possibly the diamondback watersnake. Only difference I saw was this one doesnt have that black markings on the rear of its head, as I mentioned it has no markings on its head. Its just dark brown. But if these guys can be witout the marking then that is probably what he is. Snake looks to have the same undescribable pattern on the front 1/4 body and the gophernsake like pattern on the rest. I believe this is what it was. The other funny thing about his location was there was no cattle of creeks or any source of water where I found him...he was in front of some houses. I wonder if someone had cought him elsewhere and let him go? Or he got away? There is just no water sources out in that part. I was so upset seeing it there. Such a big fat healthy beautiful snake, dead. =(
