Snakes generally strike very fast and let go, so it is not terribly painful with a small snake like a corn snake, probably similar to a paper cut.

Corn snakes , although docile , can bite. they dont have fangs , just a few very tiny teeth . and it doesnt hurt , just a few pricks

It's possible - though they are generally a docile species. I've had a few bites from some of the corn snakes in my collection. The bit is more of a discomfort than painful, and rarely draws blood - since their teeth are very tiny.
