Hi Carl, welcome on this forum.

A checkered garter snake would be Thamnophis marcianus, but this species does not live in Maryland or Washington DC.
It could be a Eastern Garter snake, Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis.
Take a look here http://images.google.nl/images?q=tha...ldingen+zoeken if your snake looks like this species.
Maybe you can post a picture.
