How fast rat poison works depends on many factors; stronger poison acts faster, perhaps within hours, while weaker types are slow, taking days or weeks and possibly not killing at all.
Time also depends on the rat’s size and the dose taken; more poison acts faster, so the exact death time is hard to pin down.
