It's not a copperhead. It's a diamond backed water snake. Harmless, but mean as a snake.

This. The bands aren't right for a copperhead, which usually have an hourglass or "Hershey kiss" pattern with no vertical lines breaking up the bands.

That's a diamondback rock crawler snake. One of the deadliest snakes on the planet. I would throw your jeans away immediately. Do not wash them with other clothes or your clothes will become infected and the venom will travel to your skin and penetrate the dermis. You were lucky, but not out of the woods yet.

Judging by the color, the alternating patterns, and the orientation of the snake, you can't take a fricking picture.


frick that. Deathly afraid of snakes and not getting any closer to take a pick.

Didn't even waste time going get a shovel. Got in the car and ran it over a few times like the giant pussy I am when it comes to snakes.

And you're still such a pussy that you can't get close enough to take a picture?

It's definitely a copperhead. You lucked out. I can't tell how big it is from that pic, but if it was a little guy, you'd have gotten the full blast of venom.
