If the snake is non-venomous, then no special treatment is needed beyond what you would do for any puncture wound. Snakes do not have dirty teeth and there is very little danger of infection from a snake bite. Most of the germs a snake would have do not affect humans at all. It is possible to get Salmonella from handling snakes, but this is from contact with waste and not their fangs.
If the snake is venomous then an antivenin needs to be administered. Each different species of venomous snake has a different venom and for every different venom there is a special antivenin. It is very, very important to get a good look at the snake so that it can be described to doctors or herpetologists so that the correct antivenin can be administered.
