Exclamation Florida Snake ID

So i was going out my back door to have a smoke and when i turned around to shut my door i saw a tail that belonged to some sort of reptile heading inside as most would i followed that tail and i found a beautiful young snake that i cannot identify but my guess is a rat/corn snake

Re: Florida Snake ID

Definitely grey rat. The only other snake that would look close to that as a juvenile would be a yellow rat.
