Thanks I will look into it. Any other opinions welcome. Do they make good pets?

My guess would be baby black racer. See enough of them around here this time of year.

Yeah, these are black racers for sure. Baby rat snakes have different patterns.

Looks like all natives are prohibited from possession in Rhode Island.

Black racers tend to be rather high strung and quite nippy, but I have seen exceptions. Most will tend to rub their noses raw trying to escape any cage they are put into. They are not a species I would recommend to anyone to try to make a pet out of.

Thanks for the help. Off they went into the forest. I found only one pic online that seemed to be an exact match to the pattern around their neck just behind the head and it was a black racer juvenile. Not a good pet even if it was permitted.
