Help identifying a snake

I work in a pet store and I got a frantic call from a woman telling me that she had a "snake emergency". I expected that she had placed a mice inside her snake cage and it had damaged her snake, I reached to find the numbers to the exotic vets office. She explained to me that she lives in an older trailer and that she was the proud owner of a Dumerils boa and she was going to feed it. She used a octagon terrarium to keep about 10-15 mice. She said as she reached in to get her mouse she noticed that they had all moved to one side. She turned on the light in her room and noticed that there was this little guy in her tank. She was frantic asking me to identify it. I told her that the only snake in this area ( Northern South Carolina) was possibly a cotton mouth. But what I noticed was that she told me that there was lack of aggression, I wondered why not. I asked her to call animal control, her husband moved the snake to a Rubbermaid container. She wanted to put it in her car for safe keeping . This was after I told her it could possibly be a cotton mouth btw. Any ideas what he could be?
