Your snake may be a checkered garter snake.

The kind of garter snake found here have long stripes and seem half tame. They are thin and not so long as your snake. I sometimes need to rescue a garter snake from the cat. She makes it coil up and dances around it like a mongoose. When the snake tries to uncoil and crawl off, she taps it with a paw and makes it coil back up. If I don't intervene, this game goes on for hours.
