Do not try this with a copperhead please. Buy a snake catching stick on Amazon, and THEN try to relocate the copperhead. And, for the record, the copperhead can give you as much sorrow as a rattle snake of cotton mouth if the thing bites you.
If you get bit by a venomous snake, be sure to identify the snake and head for the nearest ER. Better, have someone take you.
Afterthought: If you see a red yellow and black banded snake, clear out at once. They are very nasty.
