You should wear boots, thick socks and long pants. You should make lots of noise while walking so that you don't suprise any snakes, in the case that you do walk backwards slowly keeping an eye on the snake. Remember that snakes can strike half their bodys length in an instant. If you're espacially worried find out which snakes are in the area and see where the closest place that holds their anti-venom is.

Should you kill snakes?
Snakes avoid human contact if possible, and will try to escape. Snakes are more interested in hunting smaller prey (rats, mice, etc) than humans. If walking in an area known for snakes, then walk noisily. The vibrations will warn of your approach and give the snake time to slither away. The only poisonous snake in the UK, is the Adder. In other countries, some species of snake are more deadly, so it is sensible to avoid such snakes. But, in any case, there is no need to kill snakes.
