Snake in the Sidewalk

Can you see the snake along the crack in the sidewalk?  It is in the center of the photo horizontally, and its head almost touches the shadow in the lower left of the photo.

Coming home from errands, I stepped right over it as it was peacefully sunbathing and camouflaged by the crack where the driveway meets the front patio.

The nights are chillier now, and I am sure it's enjoying the warmth of the fall sun before hibernation.  The photo doesn't show the tail end, but there are no rattles.  We have always called these garden snakes, and a quick check of the internet confirms it.
