This is also called the black copper back rat snake and is actually classifided as Elaphe flavolineata however I thought it might be of interest on this forum.

I've had one of those before. They look like a rat snake but move like a racer. The one I had was pretty feisty. She escaped once and I couldn't find her anywhere. Unfortunatly my roomate found her when she opened her underwear drawer! After I stopped laughing, I proceeded to find her a new home at my roomates request.
