You're correct. Nope, don't mess with nonvenomous snakes, for their sake.*

And really don't mess with venomous snakes, for your sake.

*Except if you're in the Everglades and you're absolutely sure it's an invasive Burmese python and not one of the native species the pythons have been eating to extinction. Then you should kill it quickly. But don't eat it, they contain a lot of mercury.

Idk, lemme ask the I Can Haz Cheeseburger cat

If you interacted with a smooth green snake - aka "grass snake" - (they're tiny) and checked out their color in the sun (it's gorgeous) - they'd maybe be less nope ropes and more dinky slinky..

But yes, the "danger noodles" are the venemous ones..

Sorry, I didn't realize animal meme-ing was taken this seriously and one can be wrong. Now that I know it's possible, I probably am
