I was thinking this might be a Copperbellied watersnake, however I live in southern middle TN.. The terain is apropriate but they are not known to exist below northwestern KY.
Please help!

Looks like a worm snake. Carphophis amoenus

Since no description details were given besides the pic, I'll have to agree with Lemon Viper, assuming the animal is less than a foot in length. If that sucker is four feet long, we'll go back to the drawing boards. Was it found out & about, or under a log or rock? If the former, was it a rainy day?
