You would be right. I do see two petioles (those hump things. ) This is Monomorium sp..
In the eastern US, it is far more likely this is M. emarginatum.

Re: ID Request
"spp." stands for "species pluralis", by the way. This would be appropriate if we were talking about two or more different Monomorium sp. at the same time. Monomorium sp. is what you are going for.
If you enjoy my expertise and identifications, please do not put wild populations at risk of disease by releasing pet colonies. We are responsible to give our pets the best care we can manage for the rest of their lives.

Hey, my yard is full of these girls and I want to keep a colony desperately. Do you have any updates/feeding/housing tips? Thank you so much!
