I've been raising one I collected from the Ouachita Mountains, s.e. OK, and one I got from Troy...

...They are definitely slowinskii, imho.

I think Slowinski's corns are more like a corn snake than an Emory's rat, so I call them Pantherophis guttatus slowinskii.

PS: Slowinski's corns stick pretty much to the pine woods in OK and Emory's rats tend to be more in open/prairie habitat.

Cheers...
