Default Snake ID help
I've caught 4 snakes in the past two weeks in my backyard. They were all around 10-12 inches. Can someone please help me ID these two?

I call them corn snakes, I don't think that is the proper name though.

I put leaves around most of my plants in the yard. I have found Decay snakes when pulling weeds around these plants.
