That's a very richly colored amel(albino) corn. Some call those "reverse Okeetee's" because many have the extremely wide blotch borders(as in the normal Okeetees). Of course they would normally be black, but in your case they are white.

Many "reverse Okeetees" in the hobby can tend to have much wider white borders than the one you have, but considering how nice and rich the background color and deep red blotches are on yours, it still best fits the "Okeetee" look, even though it isn't actually from the Okeetee region of Jasper County, South Carolina.

Nice animal!

Probing is the best way to know for sure. We can make a good guess by looking at the tail just after the Cloaca. Post a pic of the underside just past the poop slit and we can give you an opinion but it won't hold up in a court of law, lol. As for what it is Doug is right as always! That's a typical Amel(Red Albino), sorta leaning toward a reverse Okeetee but I wouldn't really call it that since the RO have thicker white around the saddles but you get the ideah.

Here is a link to help you figure out which sex it is visually.

Females will generally be worth a few more bucks all things being equal because they can have offspring. The only exception to this would be if it is a brand-new one-of-a-kind genetic mutation to hit the hobby, then the males cost considerably more. But you don't have to worry about that in your case.

Being that the snake looks to be maybe two or so years old, it's market value is anywhere from $30 to $45 bucks realistically.
