It is hard to tell from the pic but since you say it is from Calif, it is probably the black belly form found in isolated populations throughout the Central Valley. I have some that are from Davis, CA. They kind of look like the Cape kingsnakes (used to be called nitida) but are more of a chocolate brown and their patterns are more irregular. Cool snakes,

:I purchased this snake (posted in photo gallery) when I bought it it was called a caped california king snake I have not been able to find any info on them it has a black body with coffee colored aberant designes that are outlined with silver please help if you know anything about this snake
