I didn't get to see your photo, but I live in Florida where we have a lot of snakes. Rat snakes can also be yellow or red and very pretty. Generally, but not always, poisonous snakes here tend to have thick bodies in relation to length. Except coral snake and pigmy rattlers. Or, I guess, very young snakes which apparently have a more dangerous bite because they have little self control as far as injecting the poison.
Like some others on this list, I'd just as soon not be around snakes, although I know,the rat snakes and black snakes do good by getting rid of vermin.
