Everyone has a different opinion of planting these with snakes. Personally, I have them with my snake. But, if it bites the plant, will it be posioned? I have never had any issues, but if someone else has, I would like to hear about it.
The philodendron is poisonous, but I think u have to break the leaves...

If I remember correctly, they have to eat the leaves to be poisoned. I don't think this is a problem with garter snakes - cats and dogs will chew on them and eat them.

I don't think a Garter snake striking at food and hitting the plant(leaf or stem) would create a problem. It's not like they are going to crew on it and swollow any. That being said it is still toxic and the risks are still there.
