Chris, without a much more detailed description or a photograph, there's just no way anyone can tell you what species the snake is.

I'm no expert Chris, but I also think it's not a Corn Snake. Normally with Corns there is still some patterning visible. So yeah, I think you're right. Others may think differently?

I would be very hard pressed to say with certainty it isn't a corn snake. Corns are a member of the Rat Snake family.

I have never seen leucistic corn snake but have seen many a leucistic rat snakes, I pulled this thread off another site because it shows some leucistic rats with no bug eyes
