It is about 2 feet long.
It has a serious attitude.
It crawled straight at me and struck 4-5 times while I took photos.

The link Tedshuck provided shows similar species. The band across the eyes seems to be more indicative of a great plains rat snake or a glossy snake.

I always thought the bull snake was darker, and less strikingly marked. I would suggest the great plains rat snake. A prettier snake but with it does come an attitude.
