WC E. Yellow bellied Racer behavior

I recently caught one and never have I seen a snake move so fast and react so violently to being chased and caught. As I was running after it trying to pin it with my stick, it went from full speed to a complete in the air 180 lunge at me trying to bite. it did this numerous times. when I finally caught it, it musked me pretty bad, a horrible smell.

I am letting it go, I only took it home to take pics and identify it for certain. Can't imagine anyone wanting one.
