I believe that the Andean milk snake (Lampropeltis triangulum andesiana) can get in excess of 6 ft. long. The black milk snake (Lampropeltis triangulum gaigeae) is probably the largest of the milk snakes, maybe as much as 7 ft. long, but it won't usually retain the brighter coloration of the youngsters, and likely not what you are looking for.
