What is this? Found it on the side of the house.

It looks like a baby Copperhead.

Thinking garter snake or a species of ratsnake, it doesn't have the typical copperhead markings.
I was thinking it was a Dekay's Brown but wasn't sure. The head shape worried me though.

Definitely a Brown Snake.
I have a lot of brown snake adults and babies in my backyard during the summer, and usually the babies are more of a red color, just like what you're seeing. Cute snakes for sure.
