found new snakeee

[Samm]

So my sister's were collecting worms for my snake [brown snake]
when they came running into the house saying they found a snake,by their reactions i was expecting an anaconda....but need'less to say this is a baby snake [and its so freaking cute] but when i say baby...i mean some of the worms where bigger then this.


So i have a questions ><

Is this snake to young to keep? ;[ [ its so cool]
And dont worry i'll be posting pics asap

The top of it is blackish/brownish and the bottom is almost a pink color

I was so excited thinking i finally have a garter..but now takeing a closer look im not sure what he is.

Dude that snake looks awesome

Im sorta thinking it looks this way because it's just a baby?

but he/she does have a sharp tail

[EdgyExoticReptiles]

and it has kinda box like head right? then its a sharp-tail. they dont get very big like 8" max i think, they eat slender salamanders and slugs
