Anyone know what kind of snake this is?

I was out for a drive today when I saw this fella on the road. I decided to stop and take some pictures while he was still around. I don't know much about snakes though and was wondering if anyone could tell me what kind of snake it is.

This is one of the only full body shots sadly, I was kind of rushed and there was a bit of traffic, so I had to do everything quickly and hope he didn't get run over inbetween shots, haha.

Might help to know what country you are in. I'd take a guess and say it's non venomous, some kind of constrictor, but I'm no snake expert. I wouldn't let it bite me to prove I was right.

Haha, I wasn't hoping for the bite either. I'm in Knoxville, Tennessee, he was just out on a random backroad. There are some lakes nearby, but I was at least a half mile away from one where I found him.

He looks quite long, and also like he needs a feed.

Looks like a Black Racer to me.

I believe its an attorney.

Does look like a Black Racer. I have them around here.

That would be a Black Ratsnake, Elaphe obsoleta.

Certainly looks like a ratsnake to me.

yep thats a ratsnake for sure
