I do have an idea what you have found, but would like to see a photo before commenting on what it is.

Re: help me identify this snake plzz no pics
Is his tongue red with a black tip? That indicates some type of garter snake (thamnophis).

Cody, Dekayi snakes eat slugs and earth worms. They can swim, but don't do it like water snakes, garters and ribbons.
