Looks like a king snake which eat other snakes and or of no danger to humans. Hopefully you let it walk.

if you think thats a king snake ur crazy that is a cottontooth rattle moccasin!!!! no really its a water snake from the angle in the pic. would have to see the head a little better. it could have been a water moccasin but the tail was a little too skinny.

Indeed it is still slithering in some ditch. I actually waited for it to get in the ditch before leaving so no other cars would hit it. I thought it was a dang stick in the road and strattled my truck as I drove over it and then went back to investigate. |

Fairly sure that is a Rat snake. They are good to have around to control the rat and mouse population.
If you look up info. on them....they can be many different colors and sizes....and look somewhat different. They are also called "corn" snake.....which is also in the Rat snake family. Latt.....I guess that snake was not too far from where I live. |

Diamond Back Water Snake?
I looked up this snake on the LDWF website. It appears to be a Diamond Back Water Snake.

Your snake and a Diamond back water snake are very similar.
But look closely at the shape of the black color on the 2 snakes. It is a little different. Too different snakes, IMHO. |

Last year I saw these types of snakes mating in the river here in town. The ones I saw were 3+ inches thick and at least 4-5 foot long.
They were wrapped up in a helix shape. |

I have been luck to have seen this twice in my life. Both times it was in shallow water and all the snakes dissappeared in a matter of seconds. |
