To treat a common black snake bite, first remain calm and keep the affected limb immobilized and below heart level to slow the spread of venom. Clean the bite area gently with soap and water, but avoid applying ice, suction, or a tourniquet. Seek immediate medical attention, as antivenom may be necessary, depending on the severity of the bite and the type of snake. Monitor for symptoms such as swelling, pain, or difficulty breathing while waiting for help.

Simply clean the bite area with a mild antiseptic solution, and cover it with a sterile dressing (IF the dog wont chew the dressing off !) If the dog would likely chew the bandage off - simply leave the wound open to the air The Black racer snake is a non-venomous species so, unless bite area got infected, the dog would suffer no ill-effects from a bite !
