Does any one know what kind of snake that is red with white oval spots?

Answers:
It sounds like you are describing a coral snake. Do you have any other information about its appearance?

First, where in the world are you located? How big is the snake? We need a few more details.
Coral snakes have red, white/yellow, %26 black bands down the length of their body, I would not consider them to be "oval spots." There are several, harmless, species of snake that have a similar color pattern. There is a rhyme, made up, to tell the difference between a coral snake and one of its harmless mimics. One version goes, "Red on black, you're OK, Jack. Red on white, beware of it's bite." The rhyme does not, necessarily, apply to all species of snakes.
