My rat trap in my yard caught him. Anyone know what kind it is? Venomous?

Banded water snake? I'm not an expert though.

Water snake. Look at the lines on the jaw. Non venomous

Could be, but I think it’s a cotton head rattle moccasin- a close cousin.

Clearly an albino massacre snek.
OT but do those rat traps actually work? I have a whole coven of rats underneath my backyard shed and this set up would be great if it worked.

Not a snake fan. Most that I come across wind up dead.

Definitely the illusive juvenile copperhead

Yes, but sometimes you have to install them in pairs.
Had rats in my attic a few years ago.
Set a large spring trap and the little fricker was able to take the bait. Installed TWO traps the next night.
I heard them both go off. SNAP!...SNAP! He evaded the first one but the second one got him.

Looks to be Nerodia of some sort.

Can’t tell….I am not used to seeing them with their head attached.

I want to know what material the fence is that didn't burn when the flamethrower hit it...

Definitely a water snake. I think a plain bellied, but kind of tough to tell from this picture. He's dark.
Save him, he's worth 10 of those rat traps and will never bother you.
