Slap my wrists if I'm wrong - but is that not an amur Ratsnake ( Elaphe anomala)?

I'm pretty sure he is an Anomala, he's way way lighter than my Russian and she's only an '06. (although they look identical as hatchlings, Schrencki go very dark -well, jet black whereas the Anomalas are lighter and what I call wishy washy lol) Defo get some more opinions though. Still a lovely snake whatever
