I'm no expert (yet, heehee), but I'm almost sure that is a "spilotes pullatus". They are very cool, I holded a nice big one in my trip to Bahia state (here in Brazil), last July. It was in the same place the guy gave me Gabriela. 
They have huge scales!!! |

are you sure that second ones not a redtailed green ratsnake? [Gonyosoma oxycephala?] i have a cb baby at home. youd be shocked at how oftin zoos have reptiles mislabled. its almost funny. but mostly sad. i went to the oakland zoo to check out their new snake exibit, and what was there? but ball pythons! youd think that with as much money as the zoo makes, they could maybe afford something more interesting then a 20$ snake. they also had a panther chameleon mis labled and with an F-ed up tail, that was stuck in shed. a trip to EBV is more educational, even tho... i always have to laugh at the misspelled rhacodactylus.
oh, heres my baby:
type Gonyosoma oxycephala into google and check out the pics.

(My photos are much too large to put on this site so I resize them, that is why they are small, but they are attachments so they are larger than pictured - please click!)

i think its either a kingsnake or it could also be the tiger ratsnake spilotes spilotes or spiloted sp. or Spilotes pullatus pullatus. and i was wrong about the redtailed green rat snake, it COULD also be elaphe frenata, they dont get as big, but it probably is Gonyosoma oxycephala [theyre are alot more common] there are alot of them, not all of them are described.
