Hello I removed this guy from a road in a construction site in Florida (central near east coast). I think it is a pine or bull snake. Can anyone please help me ID it. Thank you

That is a Florida Pine Snake, Pituophis melanoleucus mugitus. It is listed as a Species of Special Concern in Florida. Florida pine snakes may not be sold, bought or possessed for sale unless the snake is amelanistic or albino.
 
Yep nice looking Fl.Pine. They are moving this time of the year. The funny thing is they are one of the most common snakes I see. I have at least five that live here on my property. Get a fecal done and look for lung flukes. Get rid of the parasites and they can live a long time in captivity. Much better option than smashed on the road. I see several a week ran over.
