Why keep ants that aren't found in your yard?
There are so many fascinating ants right where you live!
I disagree with the keeping/buying of ants that aren't in your area.

Actually, I take that back that could be a Crematogaster sp. queen, could you get a better picture of the abdomen?
I don't know for sure, someone else might be able to verify.

Ummt too hard to get best pic cause the queen too active. The abdomen is oval-slim (not pointly)

Crematogaster have more square heads, don't determine on the abdomen.
