pituophis catenifer! pine, bull, gopher???

hello this is my first time posting here as i just found the site. and i'm happy i did, wow a place with more than two postings for pits! imagine that! well this is my dilemma i recently aquired a snake from this fella that didn't know anything about it, hold on all! i already have multiple snakes and i am confident this is a pit species and can provide the proper care for it. my conundrum is that as i am unfamiliar with this species i don't know which subspecies it is. i have googled and reptile search engined this to death and now have a severe case of information overload happening! perhaps i missed something that a more experienced pit owner could help me with in the identification of subspecies. any help with this matter will be greatly appreciatted. and now i found the site perhaps i can help others as well with my experiences

There are certainly people more knowledgeable than me, but my vote is that you have a great looking bull snake (Pituophis catenifer sayi).

Congratulations!

I agree with Dean. That appears to be a nice bullsnake. They have a very large range and can be quite variable in appearance. (they occur as far south as TX and as far north as Canada.)
They're great snakes and make excellent pets. They do get quite large though. Here's a pretty cool website to check out...

Enjoy your new pet.
