Your state does not have the smooth greensnake (Opheodrys vernalis), so by default it's the rough greensnake. :-)

Welcome to Project Noah Tracey! What a neat find - can you give us some more information? If you could fill in as much info as possible (description, size etc.) in the description field it will help the community to identify the species for you. You can use the habitat field to say that it was found in a peach tree in your yard.
