Tetnus shot would at least be recommended. No harm in a booster

See it looks like a scratch. You must be aware if any dog has made that scratch with his paws. Certainly not snake bite. Take injections accordingly.

This is too much. You don't even know whether the animal in whose contact you came was a snake or a dog. Anyway it was neither a snake nor a dog. It doesn't need a very advanced treatment from a Doctor. But it needs local treatment which can be provided by your friendly Family Physician.
