is this a red sided?

That snake looks JUST like mine, only his has a little bit more distinct red, but mines still got the real dark back stripes. I got him in Crivitz Wisconsin (up north) Does this sound about right for my snake?

I do believe red sides, thamnophis sirtalis parietalis do occur in northern wisconsin. They definatley occur in immense quantities just across the lake in Canada. Check out Atlas Frameset 1
for this, and other wisconsin herps.
