FL Snake ID

Even with my vast knowledge of Florida snakes, I'm having trouble IDing this one without a head. Any ideas?

The more I look at it the more I think it's an eastern glass lizard, especially because of the belly.

No, skinks and glass lizards are different. Glass Lizards don't have legs, whereas skinks do.
