...Masticophis lateralis. They are local to some spots here in L.A. Co. I have a friend who's got one that is doing well, eating rodents. I was interested in other people's experience keeping them as captives. From observing them in nature they seem to be rather cold weather tolerant snakes, as I seem to find them here, most often on overcast days in the 50' & 60's.
