Can you tell what kind of snake it is by the skin it sheds?
It is likely impossible to tell what type of snake it was by the shed skin. If the head was largely intact you could look for indentations on the side of the face that might be the heat sensing pits of pit vipers (rattlers, cottonmouths, etc). But this would be highly highly unlikely:)
being 3 feet in length could be many many types of snakes. For sheer probability, it depends on where you live. By numbers, some species of water snake (nerodia), rat snake, etc would be probable.
Sheds are not good identifying factors, unfortunately.
