Did you mean Diamondback Rattler or a Diamondback Watersnake (Nerodia)? Nerodia eat frogs all the time.

OT, but there are actually several poisonous snakes, mostly comprised of species that consume toxic amphibians. Some garter snakes in Oregon eat toxic newts, but it takes so long to break down the toxin that it's effectively just stored in their liver, rendering them toxic to anything that eats them. Another Japanese colubrid feeds mostly on toads and stores the bufotoxins in glands under the chin, which it can rub on predators who attack it.
