Re: Oak snake questions
Found inside a vehicle, sounds like someone lost their pet snake. You could try contacting the previous owner of the jeep. As far as feeding, can't tell size from the pic, but pinkies are only suitable for very small hatchlings. That one looks a good bit larger than a hatchling. Buzzing the tail is a common defensive display among a number of snakes, mostly rat snakes and racers IME. No need to wear gloves to handle unless you're really afraid of being bitten. Not likely to hurt much even if it did happen, just clean up with soap and water. Any heater should be on a thermostat or at least a rheostat, provide 2 hides, one on the warm end and the other on the cool end, and a large enough enclosure for an actual separation between the temp zones.
