Looks like a water snake or a milk snake. Both non-venomous, although water snakes can bite if provoked.
Garter snakes are usually 2' or less long, and are generally black with a gold/yellow stripe on the flank. I have one about 18" long living in the brush next to our patio.

Not a fan of snakes. I know they eat bugs etc, but just don't like them
I live in an area with woods and trees and have been fortunate not to see any here so far.
