Hi. Looks like it might be Hogna lenta, wolf spider. Not prone biters, but can if smacked against the skin. I imagine it stung a bit, I have only beenbitten by one. They are not medically significant, but if you seem to have any reaction, you should consult a doctor.

Hi, welcome to Spider ID. 🙂 As already suggested this appears to be a Wolf Spider (Lycosidae), I’d however suggest Tigrosa annexa. Tough to be certain from this image though.
