None of those snakes are "poisonous" because the correct term is "venomous".

To put it simply, venom is injected while poison is in ingested. So if something with a toxin stings or bites you.... it is venomous. If you eat it or absorb it through the skin or membranes it is poisonous.

to return to the original question. Water moccasins (also know and cotton mouths, and trap jaws) are venomous. However there has never been a recorded death attributed to a moccasin as far as I know.

The other snakes, Corns, milks, and ball pythons are all actually excellent starter pets for someone looking to get a pet snake.
