Can someone ID this Garter?

Hello! I've had this Garter for a year now and am not too sure where she's from. Does anyone have a clue? Thanks in advance!
I saw her in a pet store and was astonished with her color!

I feed her a rat pinky every 9 days. She used to only eat minnows until I started to scent weanling mice. Now she's eating rat pinkies raw!!!
