There are no "poisonous" snakes. The appropriate word to use is "venomous", not "poisonous", because venom refers to a toxin that is injected by the animal, whereas poisonous animals are those who spread their toxin by being ingested or through contact with the skin.
Venomous snakes can be found in nearly all the same places that nonvenomous snakes can be found, with just a few exceptions is some of the cooler regions.
