forget about it being a ratsnake of any kind, or pine snake, or a venomous Australian King Brown..LOL!. It looks a bit too robust and uniformly colored to be a Coachwhip in my opinion.
As a few others have said, it looks to be a slightly lighter than typical colored Black Racer that is also accentuated by the very bright sunlight. http://www.psychoticnature.com/photo/6848-southern_black_racer-coluber_constrictor_priapus

I hit a young black racer with my van the other day, it nearly killed me too, I was so sad. It came onto the road so freaking fast that there was no way to avoid hitting the poor baby.
Almost ran over one the other day myself. Same type situation. It was
on the side of the road near the grass line, and there were a bunch of
dead sticks laying all along that same stretch. I got about 50 yards of
where this thing was, and I saw one of the sticks suddenly turn and
crawl toward the middle of the road !! . . .fortunately there was no
traffic on that road, and I was able to move over to the opposite
lane and avoid turning it into a Ribbon Snake !

That's for sale???
Looks like a racer. The coachwhips around here in Aiken are light creme with darkening as they go down the body. Not a uniform coloration like that. The head is racer and the size is too. I've never seen a pine snake here that looks like that. The are a keeled scale species and this snake's scales appear to be smooth...racer....
