Black rat snakes can range in size from 5' to 8' in size but, normally they'll reach lengths in the range of 5' to 6'.
Unlikely - even the Yellow Rat snake hardly reaches eight feet in length.
The longest black snake in North America is named the black rat snake. The record size recorded of this black rat snake is eight feet in length. Which makes the black rat snake is the record longest.

There is really no single species of "chicken snake" There are however several snakes that will eat eggs and chickens when available. Eastern Rat Snake Northern Pine Snake Corn Snake Black Rat Snake Grey Rat Snake These species grow large enough to steal eggs from a nest and take a hen when the opportunity arises. All these are constrictor type reptiles.
It depends how old and how large the rat is. The average length from nose to bum is approximately 13cm. Longer if you include the tail.

Rats... that's why it's called a rat snake.
No. A rat snake is not poisonous.
There is no recognised species called a 'brown rat snake' - HOWEVER - Members of the Rat snake family are constrictors - not venomous.
It depends on what kind of snake you're talking about! Snakes can be many different sizes. The smallest snake in the world is only about the size of a worm. The largest species of snake is disputed, with the Anaconda holding an official record as the heaviest and the Burmese Python as the longest. In 2004 a python was found in India that was 49 feet long and weighed 990 pounds. I believe this latest is currently the record-holder for the world's largest snake.
In most of the Rat Snake species, the life-span is around ten to fifteen years.
