I recommend making a 'snake noose' if you intend to capture it live. But prepare a home for it, if you intend to keep it. A (dry) aquarium will suffice for that. If you merely want to transport it, a simple burlap bag is sufficient. Be kind, rewind...

First you want to be careful when you are doing this because it might be a rattle snake but you want to look at the head and see if it is triangle. If it is then RUN AWAY! That is a rattlesnake. But if it isn't. then it is a gopher snake. If you can't tell than carefully grab it's head and keep it's jaws shut and look at the tail and see if looks like a rattle. If it does carefully put the snake down and RUN AWAY!!!!! That is a rattlesnake! But, if it doesn't have a rattle you are safe, but be careful because gopher snakes are kind of a mean snake. Unless if you tame the gopher snake.

The most important features are the patterns of coloring in the skin and the shape of the head. If you take a picture of the snake you can check with a local university Biology department for assistance. You can also use the internet to compare your snake to others. The study of snakes is called herpatology.

A garter snake has green sides and a yellow line going down its back. They are small and they live in gardens.
