Is that the one commonly confused with the coral snake?

Red on yellow can kill a fellow,
Red on black, venom lack.

That milk snake is of the same genus as kingsnakes (Lampropeltis) and is in a group commonly referend to as the tri-colors.
Its is a mimic of the coral snake but it is also cannablisitic.

that little fellow is around 14" (355mm) long.
he'll grow to right around 60"(1522mm) maing him on of the largest milk snakes species on earth.

By comparison the eastern milksnake found in the US gets to around 18"
