Wow thats a bad typo lol I read the title and thought "why on earth would you need to cath a king snake!?" I was thinking in medical terms...as in a catheter >.>
anyways! hehe
I have had some luck in scrubland bushes and hard-ish wood forests. try to find a really rural area and do some night driving, just drive slowly up and down a road with the brights on and you could find all sorts of snakes and other creatures on the road. Especially on a warm night after the rain.

| Your two best bets are artificial cover and roadhunting. Look for sheets of metal, roofing and plywood from abandoned structures. This often attracts rodents and reptiles. Driving little-used remote roads at night can also turn up kingsnakes. Generally speaking, you will have your best luck in the spring, when snakes are thermoregulating under artificial cover and out at night actively looking for mates (aka crossing roads). Here's Cal King I found a couple years ago:

| Kingsnakes can often be found around pine groves, under planks of wood or metal, and similar places. King snakes usually share the same kind of habitat as most other colubrids such as rat snakes, milk snakes, and corn snakes. Good luck finding some. 
herps rock!
