They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

Those are great links and it could certainly be what he says it is.

Re: Is this really an Infernalis?
Now that's a real testament to the diversity location and or locale in a particular state can play. The variations in coloration and patterning of a species and its subspecies. Very interesting! Thanks for sharing that.
Stay in peace and not pieces.
