I am affraid we will need more than just one photo to be of assistance. 
Some information regarding the exact location of where it was found, what age the formation is where this was found, some more pictures from different angles, a picture with a ruler as scale would be very helpfull to get some ID's on this pic. :)

North Alabama is kind of a big area. 

If you could narrow it down to county, that would be helpful. 

Plus a few more pictures of the item from a bit farther away, with a ruler or tape measure for scale would be helpful as well. 

Right now, I am leaning towards some sort of fish material, but that is a guess at the moment.

I'm with Tim on this having a fish vibe. Even the middle suture seems reminiscent of a sensory canal.

If memory serves, Huntsville has a lot of marine Carboniferous limestones, so that may help narrow this piece down a bit.

I'm sorry to be the party pooper here, but I just see a sun blistered mineral crust.
