The black snake represents something your 3 year-old fears. It is possible that your child has seen television shows with black snakes presented in a scary way that triggered the nightmare. On a more symbolic level, your child's mind uses the image of the snake to represent something else that causes the child anxiety. This could be as simple as a friend's pet snake or as complex as fears related to bowel control, with the stool seen in the shape of a snake.
