No. Benzodiazepines include Valium, Klonipin, Xanax, Halcion, and Ativan. They can be used as muscles relaxers but are most commonly prescribed for anxiety and sleep. Carisoprodol, the active ingredient in Soma, is combined with aspirin to make Soma compound. Carisoprodol is a non-benzodiazepine muscle relaxant.

Soma Compound contain a muscle relaxant, carisoprodol, with aspirin. Aspirin; carisoprodol is used to relieve muscle spasms and pains associated with acute injuries. The tablets should only be used for a short time and should be combined with rest, physcial therapy or other non-drug therapies.
telephone your local pharmacist and ask if this is a benzodiazipine. That way you will get a correct answer.
