There are many different types of milk snakes but the ones that always comes to mind are the red, black and yellow banded ones that mimic coral snakes.
The saying FOR North America ONLY! is "Red touch yellow, kills a fellow. Red touch black, friend of jack." This refers to the sequence of the colored bands but it cannot be applied outside of north america. The rule no longer applies.
Even when you remember the saying correctly it is always safest to simply leave a snake be if you find one in the wild. They are never out to hurt you and simply want to be left alone. NEVER handle a wild snakes without being absolutely positive of what it is.
