Identify this snake

[Marwan]

Hey guys I’m in desperate need to have this snake identified. I’ve attached a picture of its head and it has a black tongue and a banded tail.

I’ll try to get some better pictures but from research it seems to be a Louisiana pine snake

First thing that comes to my mind - Bull snake. Check it out:

Its a species of Pituophis. Not sure of species or subspecies since it gets broken up quite a bit but the genus is for sure Pituophis. So bull snake or pine snake could be correct. If you could provide a few more photos of the whole snake I may be able to narrow it down further.

Really wicked looking snake!

That rostral is pretty intense so definitely Pituophis from the eastern part of their range. Bull or pine or a cross. Without location information and/or more pictures, I'm uncomfortable guessing further.
