Unfortunately, it could be almost any garter species.

What if they used that description but said also has a bit of red on it?
I don't know many black Garters with yellow stripes

Re: Help Identifing Garters *Pics*

It narrows it down a bit, but it's still a handful of species. Guessing would be useless, but T. sirtalis would be the most likely candidate. It's the most common garter species in captivity and certain subspecies fit the description.

Your parietalis, for example, could be described as a black garter with yellow stripes.

Michelle,
Your camera keeps focusing on the background. Try holding your snake near the wall, so there is less of a depth difference between the snake and the background.
