Supposedly slightly venomous but pose little threat to humans since they are not aggressive. But you should always be careful w/ any snake until you know what it is. They are mostly nocturnal. Read the wiki info on it.

That's amazing! Are you sure that it was okay to pick up? I wonder what it was... Awesome spotting!
