 Snake Identification

So I’m getting a new snake it is all black and white not Grey like a charcoal corn. someone I know bought a house found the snake in it. It has the head and body of a corn and the markings is this a known coloring or is it a differnt species of snake(maybe a ratsnake)? I’ll post pics soon I’m going to pick him up soon.

no, its an emory rat... just look at the sharpness of the pattern, head pattern, and darkness of pigment
Emory Rat~Great Plain Rat~
was known as a subspecies of corn but is now notified as its own species.
Great little fellers! I have had 2 in the past, they are native to my area
Good Luck with him!
