Inyati, you want to take a look at this one?

Not showing that, I will go with Black Pine Snake. Indigo Snake is rare. But it has some of the features. I still believe the Black Pine Snake. Indigo is supper bright. Book says "Lustrous". These scales are just down the scale from Lustrous. More like the black rat snake scale.
It could be an Indigo. I notice there is no mottled brown which should be there on a Pine snake.

Alan was right. It's for sure an Indigo. They say it's one of our most endangered snakes but I see them every summer. I live in perfect habitat for them and have never seen one over 5 miles from my house. They live in the longleaf pine forest same as the diamondbacks. This is a small one. Only about 4 foot. I've seen them over 7 foot.

They are rare. They can get up to about 8 feet. Our biggest snake.
