I hesitate to offer a specific identification, as there are several species of sporobolid millipedes having an appearance similar to yours. That aside, something in the genus Tylobolus is a possibility; see https://static.inaturalist.org/photos/1531253/medium.jpg?1423099789 for an example. Also, see https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1002&context=mwnan for a checklist of the millipede fauna of California.
