It is impossible to be sure without a photo, but try looking at a Northern Brownsnake (or Midland Brownsnake) photo. That is one of the more common culprits on this forum.
Here's a photo of the Texas subspecies which looks pretty much the same -

Hard to tell without a photo, but the snake is probably a Brownsnake (Midland Brownsnake in your area).
They are one of the more common "what snake is this" finds in people's yards/houses. They are harmless.
Here's a Texas Brownsnake (a different subspecies, but it looks pretty much identical).

Yes, I would bet my last nickel that is exactly what it is!
