Will it bite?
Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Looks like a salamander - common in wetlands and creeks.

It is not a salamander, it is indeed a lizard, and although I cannot be certain from this image, it might be a very uncommon one, namely a southern coal skink. Compare your specimen with the image and description at
