Don't Worry Fonz

Everyone makes mistakes

I especially love this part

"I know for a fact it is not E.obsoleta, juvenile or otherwise."

Good thing the snake didn't commit a crime and you were the only witness....

Sorry couldn't resist a little good natured ribbing

:D

As to Richards earlier question....Juvenile oboselta are usually a little nippy and nervous. With gentle handling he should calm down after he reaches the 20" mark or so, at least this has been my experience. If it is of the texas subspecies he may remain touchy through adulthood but even the worst wildcaught ratsnakes can be gently handled if you pay attention to subtle messages they so politely provide before they begin ravenously chewing on you :)
