Never trust a large python.

I put my foot down on having snakes as pets.
Except I'm going to wear shoes so my heal doesn't get bruised.

The snake thing is like the low performance driver with a high performance car situation. The big ones, and the venomous species are dangerous, and should only be handled accordingly. There are pros who deal with these creatures professionally, and know what they're doing. One of them has had a reptile farm in my area for five decades. He started as a hobbyist, grew a successful business, supplies venom for pharmaceutical companies, keeps some rare species under license. He keeps a king cobra on site, an anaconda, and numerous rare vipers.

He's been bitten a few times, and survived, because he keeps anti-venom on hand for every venomous species he deals with. His exhibits stress the productive role of snakes in the ecosystem, but also the problems that arise when they become invasive species such as the everglades pythons. Like a fast car, if you don't deal with it appropriately, it's going to lead to bad results.
This guy was somewhat of a legend many years ago. Bitten by venomous snakes so many times he didn’t need anti venom . Lived to be 100 years old somehow.
