Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis
Tan underneath with darker colored back, back has black checker pattern all the way to the tail along with a yellow stripe following down the spine. This particular specimen was approximately 2 1/2 feet long.
Found basking next to railroad.
Cheers to my mother for getting me a nice stick to catch this girl. Might I add she had a large lump in her stomach. (Most likely a frog.)
