Answer 5

First of all if it was outside you should have left it alone it wouldnt have hurt you snakes don't hunt down people just to bite them. Secondly snakes aren't poisonous they are venomous poison is injested through the digestive track and venom is injected directly into a vein.

Answer 6

OK First if the snake has Vertical pupils its venomous if it has round pupils its safe it wont hurt you....well you should go to google and what ever state your living in search "Your State's reptiles and amphibians" i know you don't need the amphibians but it gives you a better search result,Good luck with your search for this unknown snake :)
