They were probably bigger adversaries when humans were barely starting out, or maybe when we were monkeys, and that fear stayed in our memories to the present.
No reason to fear fox snakes, gopher snakes or garter snakes. You have much more reason to fear other humans.

1) a small percentage of species are poisonous to humans
2) because of the myth of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, with the serpent representing evil or to some, Satan.
