If it's near the end of their belly, it may just be a bowel load that they're saving up for a colossal dump. They do that. It shows up most on lighter colored snakes, in my (albeit brief) experience. But photos would probably help, whether it shows the color or not.

Pink usually indicates they are about to shed. As Caspian said, it could just be bowel matter. It could also be bruising, which can manifest itself on the belly of a snake in different places if there is an internal infection--not to freak you out. It's probably just the normal pattern, but we would need a few pictures to be sure.

Re: Question.
I just got home so here is the picture 
You can see a pink spot right above her vent and then a dark color. Is this normal and I'm just I over reacting? I just want her to be healthy.

Looks like it's getting ready to drop a nice steamy poo. That right above the vent is a urate causing the pink color.
