The Common Kingsnake(Lampropeltis getula)
Hey all,
I helped my friend Sergio save a Common Kingsnake from being trapped in his water tank. Then we relocated it out into his field.
It seemed very happy to be out of that cold water! 
Here are some Wiki Facts.
The Common Kingsnake(Lampropeltis getula) is a harmless colubrid species found in the United States and Mexico. Adult specimens are 39-78 inches (98.5–197 cm) in length. Specimens up to 82 inches (208.2 cm) have been recorded.The biggest one was measured 8.5 feet long. They eat snakes, including venomous snakes, being immune to their venoms. They also eat amphibians, turtle eggs, lizards, and small mammals, which they kill by constriction. Long a favorite among collectors, they do well in captivity, living for up to 25 years or more.
