It is red next to black is a friendly jack (non-poisionous). Red next to yellow can kill a fellow. I can't tell from the picture if there is a yellow band between the red and black. If there is it could be poisonous. I am no snake expert but my guide book said that snakes are rare in Guatemala and are not poisionous.
