Agreed that it is some species of Rattlesnake.

Well, this certainly looks like a rattlesnake. Here is a website you might want to look at for a better ID: http://www.californiaherps.com/identification/snakesid/rattlesnakes.html. Let me know if you can narrow it down somewhat from this page. Thanks for posting.
