The California red-sided garter snake is a slender snake that is smaller and lighter than the San Francisco garter snake. Females typically reach 90–100 cm (35-39 inches) while males typically reach 65-75 centimeters (25-29.5), and are markedly thinner than females.
The red-sided garter snakes have an upper row of well-defined red spots, and lower row with patches of red color that smear on the dark area on either side of their back. [6] These snakes have multiple yellow stripes present on their body. Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis is sexually dimorphic, where females are usually larger than males. [4]
