Hard to tell without more detailed picture, but it seems to me it looks a lot like Pseudosasa japonica. Leaves are large and it has relatively thin culms with small number of branches, it spreads like a runner and when it sets out culms along the rhizome runner, it sets clumps of new growth around each of the previous year's shoots. It acts like a runnung clumper :)
