Looks like a water moccasin as mentioned above.
In high school I had a little snake farm as a business to raise some extra dough for drugs, mainly pythons and boa constrictors...I've been wanting to get back into it (snakes, not drugs). It's quite lucrative these days as pythons are becoming popular pets, security animals and vermin chasers....
Back in the mid to late 80's, I was getting $150-175 per egg on the Pythons and about 45-50 on the boa constrictors.
My biggest python was a burmese I named Cleopatra...she used to sleep in a huge fish tank in my bedroom and one night, she got out and crawled out of my room and into my father's room...he's not a fan od snakes and let out the most blood curdling scream I'd ever heard.....damned if he didn't scare my poor snake.....
Cleoptra also acted as the anti-theft device in my car......sadly, the snake was too smart and got out of her tank one night and crawled outside and froze to death.....
