my surprised discovery

I was walking on a trail looking or something interesting when I looked up to find a bird and found this to my left I am terrified of snakes but he was not worring about me so I took advantage of that. If he had started moving I would have ran lol

over 6 foot long
head to tail

Great shot! When I was a kid in Central Florida, I'd see these a lot. We called them Blacksnakes. A few people called them Kingsnakes. If this is the same specie, this snake is harmless, and helpful, but keep them away from your henhouse; they love eggs.

Im not a snake person but thought since it was not moving and I was there then why not take the opportunity.

thanks so much I am trying to see what works for me and extra eyes is better than just your own judgement.

Rat snakes are not black. they are brown
You are mistaken! Rat snakes comes in many colors.
Google rat snake. You will see the almost identical snake,
I have seen these Rat snakes in WV many times.
All black.
The shape of the head is a dead giveaway.
Here is a link to the "Northern Black Rat Snake"

You did well. I wouldn't even have had the ability to shoot it.
