Milk Snake vs Copperhead

I have a box turtle habitat. Yesterday afternoon I found a little snake among the leaf litter. It was about 12" long, and at the time thought it was a copperhead (I couldn't tell, but thought it had the arrow-shaped head...). After searching for info and looking at photos, now wondering if it was a milk snake based on inconsistencies: it was skinny not fat; had a dorsal line along its back that "divided" the sides into distinct patterns. Couldn't get a picture of it.
