Help identify this little guy

I found him in some frost cloth I was moving. Any idea what kind?

A Texas Brown snake?
No, I'm not being sarcastic :0)
Try google image search for Texas Brown snake. Sorry, I can't get a link to work.

I think I have those. Are they almost pinkish when they are younger?

I think they can be a range of colors, tho they have the same markings. A lighter line down the center of it's back with a broken line on the sides of the lighter stripe.
I always think to myself, that the lighter line looks like it has been 'stitched' onto the snake by a darker color.

I did the Texas Brown Snake search and I think your right. Thanks :-)

How big is it?

Not big, they are garden snakes, bug and insect eaters. Like garter or ribbon snakes.
If you try and pick them up they have a bad attitude and will strike at you...it's all a bluff.

I found another one on the other side of the house outside the garage. And he acted just like that.

That's a beautiful photograph!

Thanks:). Ihe was on the ground so I put him on the mahonia
For the photo. Then I put him back down.
