There is no such thing as a poisonous snake. There are, however, venomous snakes and a raccoon will eat them. A poison is something which must be ingested to kill. A venom must be injected to kill.

Snakes are not particular. They will take on any snake that crosses their path sand it not too large to pose a danger to the raccoon. I doubt that a smart raccoon would attempt to take on a larger rattlesnake.
