I would say Tiger Salamander too. It is the right coloration and pattern, though I'm not sure whether A. tigrinum or A. mavortium, or which subspecies, without looking.

Marbled Salamander is also an Ambystoma, but this individual looks rather big to be one. Also aren't the Marbled Salamanders a different colour?

Great pic - is it yours?

Re Google, try googling instead "Ambystoma tigrinum" and then "Ambystoma mavortium". Also did you put quote marks around Tiger Salamander? If not your search might go a bit awry.
