Juvenile western diamondback ?
It's not a hognose or WDB. See my post above. Pretty certain it's one of those I listed.
Personally, I think it is a Prairie King Snake but I'm not 100%.
There are about 3 snakes (maybe 4) that all look close to this and I'm not familiar with all of them well enough to discern which is which. Location would help limit that list a little bit.

It's a prairie kingsnake.
Sorry gentleman but they don't really look anything like a hognose or western diamondback.

I'm with Jeff on this one, hard for me to sometime distinguish between the Prairie Kingsnake and the Great Plains Rat at times.
I initially thought Kingsnake as well, but a google image search said rat snake and threw me off (it's already well established google images isn't good at this).

I don't remember the exact circumstances, but I remember image searching another snake that I was having a hard time IDing, and I just remember it being WAY off (like Prairie Kingsnake / Western Diamondback off).
Definitely don't trust AI just yet at snake IDs. That will be a good indicator of its progress once it starts getting these right.
The Seek app also mis-ID'd a picture of the one ran over on my lawnmower the other day- AI thought it was a water snake of some sort and it was a rat
I'm sure there is some sort of liability and if there is even .01% doubt it will say its a venomous snake so you will just leave it alone and not get bit.
I am your AI. No need for grok.

Nerds made grok. Nerds don't go outside. Nerds think snakes are poisonous.
Western hognoses have a fairly similar patterning, but of course have the upturned snout.
I know a lot about a little, and a little about a lot.
That is a beautiful snake, wow.

He really is... AI is very bad at animal identification for some reason. Much better at plants but still not perfect at all.
