The following is the definition of a venomous reptile for Florida regulations. The last sentence states that the only regulated rear-fanged species (ones that require a venomous license) are Keelbacks (Rhabdophis), all Boiga, Boomslangs, Twig or Bird snakes and Stiletto snakes. Everything else is fair game.

68A-1.004 Definitions.
(93) Venomous reptile – All members of the class Reptilia including their taxonomic successors, subspecies, or any hybrid thereof, regardless of surgical alteration, determined to have the potential to cause serious human injury due to the toxic effects of its venom or poison. Including all venomous reptiles of the class Reptilia belonging to the families Elapidae, Crotalidae, Viperidae, and Hydrophiidae; all reptiles in the genus Heloderma; and all reptiles in the family Colubridae belonging to the genera: Rhabdophis, Boiga, Dispholidus, Thelatornis, and Atractapsis.
