Just found a lizard in my backyard

Assuming its warm enough buy you, keeping him outside might be great for him. Assuming you don't have cooler nights. This is how I kept my tortoises. Just be sensitive to sun light so you don't roast him.

Nothing wrong with taking them from the wild, so long as it's conservationally sound. But if he wants to keep this animal, he needs to get a proper INDOOR setup, with heat and UV. In the wild, it'd be able to move around to different areas to regulate humidity and temperature, not possible in a tiny tank kept outdoor.

Just let the Lizard go.

I probably got the first 20 pets from the wild. Go ahead and keep him. Better than letting him get mulched in a mower or run over by a car or chewed on by a dog. Keep him for a bit and see if you like having him if not then you can release him no harm done.
