Yeah, like the others have mentioned, many systems include snake forms within them, but most actual separate snake styles of kung fu are modern creations (often contemporary wushu).
Hungar, Choy Li Fut and other Southern Chinese Kung Fu methods have interesting snake forms in them as do more modern creations such as Cuong Nhu (a recent Vietnamese style of martial art), and Wing Chun is sometimes said to be a combination of Southern Chinese Snake & Crane techniques. The Korean art of Kuk Sool Won, which seems to be a combination of Korean Hapkido and Chinese Kung Fu also has animal forms including the snake.
Best of luck in your search.

Yes as mentioned, Snake is taught within a system. Much like Phoenix fist and Red Fist. Some of the smaller systems got merged into the more common systems. Our style is Northern Long Fist and Southern 5 Animal is taught at the black belt level.
This is the form we learn. My sifu is performing this while training in Taiwan. Sorry for the quality, this was taken with a VHS camera the old school way.

Master of Shaolin I-Ching Bu Ti, GunGoPow and I Hung Wei Lo styles.
I am seeking sparring partner. Any level. Looking for blondes or redhead. 5'2" to 5'9". Between 115-135 weight class. Females between 17-30 only need apply. Will extensively work on grappling.
usually, the five animals are more as$ociated with Southern Gung-Fu rather than Northern. It has been my experience that most Northern animal sets are recent creations.
"My Gung-Fu may not be Your Gung-Fu.
Gwok-Si, Gwok-Faht"

that killed Kung-Fu."

There was a well known sifu that taught Sei Ying Diu Sau in Hong Kong. I would have to ask my sifu his name as I forgot it. I know he passed away awhile ago but the style itself was real (not what jackie did in the movies) and it was a snake style if you will.

Thats some nice form, congrats to your master
Here's one of our best selling DVDs: Snake Fist (Emei Style)
Here's an archived article: She Ying Kuen (Snake Style Form): Advanced Internal Set of the Sil-lum (Shaolin) System by Wes Cameron
Also check out my old article, Shaolin Snake Style: Seeking the Serpent's Strike in our 1999 October issue. I was going for a s-s-s-s-s-s alliteration with the title. That sort of thing struck me as funny back then.

Sifu Rondie Chen had a mo kwoon in New Jersey where he'd taught Bak Sare Ying:

The name of the Sifu was Leung Kar Fung. My sifu said he had a well-known school in Hong Kong but the last time he was near it, it was no longer there. The sifu passed away some time ago but my sifu thinks he might have some students that might still teach but not many. The sei ying dil sau system he taught was a northern snake system.
Any updates on those Se Yind Dil Sao from Hong Kong?
These ppl got videos or websites?
And what about snake and crane arts of shaolin?
Is that story all made up too?
