Definitely a grey banded kingsnake, and a nice example of one too. Due to them being a non boa or python, I would recommend only feeding the size of the largest part of their girth. They will not need rats and do great on mice; size according. They are pretty active snakes so probably feed every 7-10 days for an adult.

You will want to quarantine that animal away from your current collection. You should get it tested for parasites, since it’s been out so long and it looks healthy (good weight). You never want to accidentally introduce parasites into your collection, especially if you could’ve avoided it in the first place.
