No. Not the same thing. The parallel I can draw is the difference between zucchini and cucumber.

Snake gourd will taste more akin to "Torai" (Hindi word), used for curries -





Asian cucumbers are more like "Kakdi" (Hindi word) - you can eat it without peeling the skin because skin is usually thin. Sweeter than regular cucumber and a little dryer. Used for salads -

Snake gourd is a thin, flexible gourd that grows upto 6 feet long, though there are shorter varieties. It is hollow with seeds in the cavity, and is either pale green or with light white stripes. Asian cucumbers are different.
