They're generalist sort of species, though I would avoid looking in closed canopy forest. Like most kingsnakes, they seem to do real well in agricultural areas

I've walked up speckled kings on canal banks and levees in Louisiana, in similar fashion to the stories of Florida kings in the canefields. I've also found them crossing roads in the heat of the day near water.

Cover flipping in the cooler months is probably the most productive method of finding them. I would start by laying cover around the edges of your property if you have the land.
