I believe king snakes are banded, not striped.

Re: What is this snake?

This is a 'fancy' or abberant pattern, high white california king. Probably bred in captivity, could easily survive in the wild in florida, but NOT native to that area.
Very cute little snake, i have one as well.

Typical, wildtype california kings come in black/white bands, and also newport morphs and 'desert morph', with varying muddiness in pattern, and range from crisp black.white to yellow/brown.
