Rough Green Snake – Identification

Q: Can you identify this snake for me? I found it in a small tree. I watched it as it climbed onto a low hanging limb of an oak and then I got him! I figure that it is harmless so I released it onto the limb of another oak tree.
A: It’s a rough green snake. They are great climbers but completely harmless.
