No, not all snakes have fangs. If you live in a suburban area, it is possible that it is a gopher snake. These are completely harmless. But, to be on the safe side, you should know what it looks like and figure out what it is. If it has a triangular shaped head and has slits in its eyes, then it is probably venomous. If it has more of a lizard shaped head (long and oval shaped) with round eyes, then it is probably harmless. You can also tell what it is by the markings. I don't know where you're from, so I can't really help you there. Just make sure you're careful.
Worms and snakes do the same thing when they dig holes; they worm their way into the ground. Snakes are very strong and just thrust their head around to pack the dirt to the side.

most all snakes have fangs of one type or another except for contrictors (pythons,boas) Tree boas and pythons do have some large front non-venomous fangs for catching mid flight birds and bats. Venomous snakes have front fangs, others are rear fanged. Did you know even the common gardner snake has rear fangs and slightly potent saliva to stun toads and frogs. Common snakes do not dig their own holes. They usually use the holes left by mice,moles,shrews or crayfish. They may push through some soft ground with their head and some burrow in sand but they do not really dig their own holes.

Only venomous snakes have fangs. All snakes have teeth, though, except for the egg-eating snake.
The snakes that dig holes use their heads to push their way through soft soil. If it is hard soil, they probably used an existing hole that was dug by another animal.

I think(I'm not for sure) that when snakes dig holes the use their head and kinda burrow the hole or they actually take the hole or home of one of their prey or another animal who has abandoned it...... I think all snakes have fangs just some are bigger than others

Only poisonous snakes have fangs, but all snakes have long, sharp teeth that point backward toward their throat.
They dig by wiggling their bodies into the dirt until they get in. They also take advantage of rodent (like mole and rat) tunnels.
