Hey redditors, can you identify this snake for me?

I found this in my back yard next to the steps inside the house. He's only about 6 inches long but I have never seen one around here like it. The colors seem way too prominent for him to just be some random snakey creature. Here it is! ssssssnake

I am fairly certain that what you have is an eastern milk snake.
