You obviously want to go that direction, but I hope you have LOTS of experience with harmless snakes first. Taking good care of snakes that you cannot touch as you
would harmless ones makes health care a huge challenge, & one that very few vets want to help you with. I'm also not sure what the big draw is? -I prefer "hands-on"
pets -but yes, I've kept hots, mostly because the local rattlesnakes ended up in ppl's yards & needed relocated so they weren't needlessly killed. (The ones "kept" were
not releasable for various reasons...too long in captivity with someone else who turned them over to me, or they weren't healthy enough to survive re-location.)
And the word is "venomous".
