Fiery Skipper - Hylephila phyleus
You have a male Fiery Skipper. Compare with these images. A key mark is the jagged border of the orange/dark margin of both the forewing and hindwing. This makes the dark margin look like an irregular series of dark darts. Compare also with the male Whirlabout here where the dark margin is ragged but more continuous.
