Up here in Massachusetts, we have a great site with a bit of info on every native snake:

I've been looking for similar sites for CT, NH, VT, and RI to see what kind of herping I could do there, but I haven't found a thing.
However, considering our (pretty much) identical climate, I can only assume our snakes are about the same as yours.
If I'm not mistaken the the only difference is a lack of one or two species. I do not beleive you have anything that we lack...but again, I can't be certain.
