Was it poisonous or not?
Only half of all bites by venomous snakes result in getting venom in, so unless there is significan pain and swelling to the area, you may have not recieved any venom. If there is pain and swelling, you need to go to the nearest ER. NOW!
If this was a non-venomous snake, then you need to clean and dress the wound. If you have not had a tetanus shot in the last ten years it is highly recommended that you get one ASAP, either from your private doctor or the local ER. If you see any signs of infection- redness, swelling, drainage from the wound, you need to see a doctor for antbiotics. But keep it clean and dry, and allow it to heal, and there's a good chance you'll be fine.

I am really hoping this is a joke. If you have been bitten by a snake, regardless of what kind... it shouldn't be one of those questions you ask Yahoo Answers, as your life could be slowly slipping away. Perhaps you're hallucinating. Go to the nearest Emergency Room or Urgent Care or CALL 911! It appears you may already be going crazy! !!!!!
So H U R R Y!!
