"but what would be the explanation for some snakes being more bite prone than others?"

That would simply go under the heading of...."MORE defensive"..

It's only perceived as "agression" by humans, and commonly thought of that way. The snake instinctively only has it's best interest of survival in mind. It's just that certain types and individuals have a more extreme instinct for doing so. It's really as simple as that.
