no.
No. King snakes are one of the most common snakes in the pet trade and would therefore not be poisonous. They are from North America, and there are very few poisonous snakes found there. I have a pet king snake and he is extremely docile and has never bitten anyone.

A Scarlet King Snake can be extremely deadly to smaller snakes be they poisonous or non-poisonous.
