The ring coils around my finger.
The snake coiled around his prey.
The person froze as he felt the snake coil itself around his leg.
By saying "coiled around" it means to wrap or twist around something.

@angel19 I disagree with your first sentence, as it's much better to use "the ring fits around my finger" or "The ring wraps around my finger" rather than coiled around.
From my understanding "coiled around" is used for things that are open-ended in nature, like they can coil and uncoil. Similar to a spring or a snake.
