glades rats

I have been seeing these on craigslist this week. I have always wanted a glades rat. These look like yellow rats to me. Possibly intergrades? I am not even in the least bit an expert on glades or yellow rats so i would like an experts opinion.

Since it is on your hand and letting you take a picture, it is a great little animal.
If you read the literature, all Eastern Black Rats, Yellow Rats, and Everglades Rats are one species, Pantherophis alleghaniensis. If you look in Wall's book, Yellow Rats would have a black tongue, and a Glades' tongue would be red.
