Origins of venomeous snakes prob occured from evolution of them working a more sophisticated way for them to kill their prey when compaired to constricting. Crushing prey has its problems as the prey can sometimes wriggle free or gnaw into the snake if the head is free. A delivery system through fangs which kills prey quickly avoids this and some venoms can start to digest prey easing digestion, a period where a snake is more vunerable.
The fact that some snakes are still non vemoneous also shows how good a predator in nature they are
