is it necessary to have vent on gasoline can, also any difference other than color, between gasoline and kerosine cans?

Yes, you need a vent in some form ONLY when pouring, some have a separate vent cap and others vent through a special spout. Any other time, the can must be completely sealed to preserve the fuel. There shouldn't be anything but a color difference in cans, but just make sure they're of the same plastic...usually #2.
