Yes! -- both corn snakes and rat snakes have diamond-like patterns when they are young. They are common, harmless and helpful (controlling rodents). If you get one in your garage or lanai, just open the door and gently direct them out with a broom or anything else with a long handle. They want to get away from you as quickly as possible.
