Maybe we should just have the snake deal a set amount of GUI health like nobanana has said or have it drain 1 health per second for about 30-40 seconds. I would go with this as it gives you some time to heal yourself and if you get bit by a snake you have the opportunity to escape with your life. That moment when someone finally agrees with you :D

Anyway, I was mentioning poison arrows. Crossbows are far too effective for this kind of thing, they'll be dead before the slowing even comes into play.
