Probably the Beautiful- But-Dangerous Copperhead- the poem goes- Red to Yellow- Kill a Fellow, Red to Black, Venom Lack. ( the king snake is red-black-yellow in pattern, is harmless. not so the Copperhead. Older copperheads are copper-colored on top- good camouflage, and the bands are not as distinct. Still it takes all kinds. I once saw a teenager at a carnival ( male) who dangled a Copperhead around his neck and held it on the neckline like a shaving appliance- with weird music in the background, natch. it takes all kinds.

This is a complex question and one that isn't especially easy to answer. The black mamba, and sea kraits both are very deadly and can cause death in minutes, but they rarely come across human activity. The snakes that cause the most yearly deaths are the diamond-back rattlesnakes, (eastern and western combined), and the king cobra. Both live in close proximity to people and cause many deaths yearly.

Either the Russell's Viper or the Saw-scaled Viper depending on which publication you read. The common Brown is far down the list.
