Yes in France it is illegal and there is a big risk for you.
I belong to some french forums for Amphibians and Reptiles and we always make advises on the forums to people who ask questions how to care species which are illegal to have at home.
All french amphibians and reptiles are protected.
Please, let them in nature (They become so rare) and go to species as cognatus, alvarius, etc...

It's ok I returned them all to the same place. I didn't keep them I just caught them, took photos and then put them back. In France I have caught green lizards, common lizards, geckos, tortoises, terrapins, toads, tree frogs and once an absolutely massive frog which I couldn't identify. It was the size of a bullfrog and could jump meters, I never figured out what it was.
