I have had to deal with this issue myself after buying my house. Pond that backs up to woods means lots of snakes. I used to just kill them all, but now i only kill the venomous ones or ones that i suspect are venomous. I have personally seen a king snake killing/eating a copperhead, so i try to let them go. Ive seen brown snakes, garter, king, eastern ribbon, copperhead, moccasin's and others that i havent been able to identify.
