These snakes vary from dark blue with a few white scales to the mostly white snakes with a few dark scales. Nice find.

I concur that it is a buttermilk racer. I've caught and maintained three of these in the past and I've noticed that they make better captives than racers in generally. It seems that they are more calm and better feeders.
