Blue racers can be light blue, white or yellow on the belly. I've seen all three on 2 adjacent farms in southeastern Iowa and their range probably extends down into Missouri. I doubt blues occur in Texas, however. Besides, it sounds like this snake was climbing. I've seen a baby black racer in a bush about a foot or 2 above the ground but never an adult racer. Garter snakes don't seem to climb much either. Ratsnakes, on the other hand, are well known for their climbing ability.
