Snake id please

I'm on a phone and I don't know how to deal with images, so here is a link to a gallery of the pics. http://postimg.org/gallery/286wxrarm/

I'm in Tulsa OK, fairly urban, on 5 acres of manicured grass and lots of trimmed trees. im used to seeing corns, racers, and garters. I think it's a colubrid, but I want to be sure with my 5 dogs out here, for their sake and the snakes. Can you help me with an ID, or at least whether it's a harmless colubrid or not. Thanks

Western rat snake. Formerly known as a black rat snake. I think it should be called a Western black rat to differentiate it from the blotched Western (Texas) rat snake morph. It's a nonvenomous rodent/bird feeder.
