I originally thought it was a garter snake, now I'm thinking it is a young gopher snake. It is about 14" long. Judges?

Re: Is this a garter snake?
My ID skills are complete crap (so you probably want to wait for someone else to chime in), but it doesn't look like a garter.

Re: Is this a garter snake?
I guess I don't feel stupid for not knowing. People with much more snake ID skills are having a tough time with it.
Thanks for the help.

Email this guy. His name is Clint Pustejovsky. Tell him Didymus20x6 (Thomas Wright) sent you.

Which is the same as a gopher snake. That's what I think too.

looks like a bull snake... gopher snakes aren't the same as bulls, different subspecies.
