I kept venomous snakes for over 10 years and hands down spiders are easier to keep. Room requirements, food, cleaning, everything is simpler and less dangerous with spiders.
On the other hand, I have never been close to being bitten by a snake and these damn spiders make me nervous because you are always in such close proximity to them when doing maintenance. I fully expect to get tagged by a pokie or something one day. Snakes are much more predictable than spiders.
And for the record, I'd take a widow bite over anything but a contortrix
