It is always a wise idea to note the locality the snake was found in. You have a young ratsnake..either a yellow or a black, depending upon where you are. It will probably not eat insects, but may eat lizards or frogs or pink mice.
For the site managers, I could not respond by hitting reply. I've never seen that problem before.

Gary, like Greg said, it is a Ratsnake. If you can tell us what part of the coutry it was found, we will be able to give you a better idea of just what kind of Ratsnake it is. Many juvenine Ratsnakes look very much alike.

Based on it being a wild caught juvenile rat snake from the Maryland area - I would say that it is DEFINITELY a Black Rat Snake (whatever latin name you want to call it this week).

I was pretty sure this snake was a milk snake based on pictures that I found, the markings looked like that of a milk snake. This snake was found in my basement in Maryland.

This is no mystery! I am shocked at the number of varied responses from people who claim to know what they are talking about. That is a black ratsnake. It is common and found in great numbers in your area. BLACK RATSNAKE!!! Wow!!!
