Can some one tell me what kind of snake this is?
It's about 13 inches long.

If you have this snake contained, I suggest visiting your local veterinarian. Then you will know if the snake is poisonous.
It doesn't look like any rat snake I've ever seen, but it does bear an uncomfortable resemblance to a cottonmouth-a very poisonous snake that is comfortable in water, and has a very vicious bite:
The triangular head is a sign of it being a venomous snake-please be careful around this thing and find out what it is as soon as possible.
Definitely a harmless Water Snake (genus Nerodia). I'm 100% on that. Probably a Northern Water Snake, Nerodia sipedon. It will bite if you pick it up but it is not venomous.

Obviously a hog-nose snake; they are harmless.
