Hi Chase, it can't be a hybrid with the Texas Rat Snake, they are both the same species. If you believe it is both, then it would be an intergrade between the Black Rat Snake and the Texas Rat Snake. You can also add this to the Snakes of the US Mission, https://www.projectnoah.org/missions/12027210
