Instinctively they will try to flee from the advancing flames. Alternatively, they seek shelter in underground burrows. Heat always rises - therefore the fire should pass over them in their hiding place.

During a wildfire, rattlesnakes will try to flee to safety by moving away from the flames. However, they may also hide in burrows or under rocks to protect themselves from the fire. After the fire has passed, they will come out to assess the damage and may need to find new habitat and prey.

Since most snakes cannot outrun a fire, they will usually seek shelter in an underground burrow and wait for the danger to pass.
