There are many different varieties of black-and-red-striped snakes; most infamously, the Coral snake vs. the Milk snake. Though they look nearly identical at first glance, one is deadly, and one is harmless. There is a little poem to help you remember the difference between the two.
To determine whether the snake is poisonous or not, simply look and the stripes and think of this poem:
Red on black? You're okay, Jack.
Red on yellow? They'll kill a fellow.
