Venomous snakes are species of the suborder Serpentes that are capable of producing venom, which is used primarily for immobilizing prey and defense mostly via mechanical injection by fangs. Common venomous snakes include the familiesElapidae, Viperidae, Atractaspididae, and some of the Colubridae. The toxicity of them is mainly indicated by murine  while multiple factors are considered to judge their potential danger to humans.

One cannot simply give characteristics of venomous snake and non venomous snakes because it is different from one another.

if u take a cobra (venomous) is highly aggressive like other vipers and mamba but where as krait is not that aggressive, pythons are aggressive though they are non venomous

but if u want to distinguish venomous from non venomous snakes in India, i think i can help.

in India there are four venomous snakes that cause human deaths and due to that they refer them as BIG FOUR they are

cobra

Russel’s viper

saw scaled viper

Krait

cobras can be easily identified because of their hoods, Russel’s viper and saw scaled vipers can be identified with their triangular heads and kraits are somewhat difficult to identify but these can be identified with their paired white bands.

Other venomous snakes are sea snakes and coral snakes and these can be identified through their long bands usually very colourfull snake. if u see some sea and coral snake pics in google pics u can easily identify them

other venous snakes either belong to cobra family, vipers family or Krait family they are King cobra, Monocellate cobra, Malabar pit viper, bamboo pit viper,many banded krait, sind krait, hill krait etc……
