Since there is little danger as far as poisonous plants go, since snakes won't be eating them, the main thing to be concerned about is injuries from thorns and such-- and make sure the plants are sturdy as most snakes will crush more delicate ones as as they crawl around.

I would avoid the finer spined cactus. While their scales would give a certain amount of protection, I would be leary of the snake trying to shed on one.
