No - since you can never be absolutely certain which species of venomous snakes are in your area. The safest way is to treat a victim with antivenin - after they've been bitten. Antivenin is specific to the species of snake, and has to be administered by a doctor, due to the complexity of ascertaining the correct dosage for the individual patient. Too much antivenin will act with the venom already in the patient's system (increasing the chances of death) - too little will not be of benefit to the patient at all.
