>>> I assume Rat snakes are not poisonous.

Jack Rat Snakes are not poisonous and are not aggressive snakes ... they are quite friendly, although they will take a striking 'stance' if threatened but their bite is harmless and more of defensive mechanism. They are really cool creatures! This guy is rather large for our area but I've been told that they will get to over 6 ft in length around here.
