For North American non venomous I just can't think of anything meaner or for that matter faster to bite then the common black racer.

I caught one quite a bit over 5 feet as a kid in florida and got bit quite a few times in the process.

I don't have much experience with snakes around the world (at least wild caught) and none with venomous from anywhere but locally. I find most rattlers, copperheads and cottonmouths to be much easier to get along with then the common black racer.

Perhaps that is just my experience but every damn one I have ever encountered in the wild was more then ready to bite the s--t out of anything that moved,
