Snakes are very prominent in the Harry Potter series. A serpent is Slytherin house's animal because Salazar Slytherin was a very famous parselmouth (meaning he can speak to snakes). Lord Voldemort could also do this, and when he accidentally made Harry a Horcux he gave Harry this ability.

Harry released a boa constrictor at the zoo in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets the monster of the chamber attacking students was a Basilisk, a giant serpent.

Lord Voldemort had a pet snake, Nagini, who he turned into his final Horcrux.

The snake was an unnamed boa constrictor. It did not appear again later on.

The relevance of the situation was that Harry unconsciously used magic, without yet knowing that he was a wizard, and that he could speak with snakes, which was rare, even for wizards.

Harry Potter faces a Basilisk. Looking into the eyes of a Basilisk will result in instant death. They also have extremely poisonous fangs.

No one. That line is not in Harry Potter. A Google search suggests it's from the Science Fiction novel The Big Time by Fritz Leiber.
