There’s this Japanese maple tree planted in my backyard, I’m wondering if anyone knows what species this is based off of one of the fall leaves? My guess is it’s a fire glow maple but I would like to hear another opinion .

The species is palmatum. Cultivars are clones of a specific individual and cannot be identified by visual inspection.
 
There are 1000s of Japanese maple varieties and many have very similar looking leaves so trying to ID by leaf is impossible
