Call AAA

If you can't do that then wedge a wooden wedge into the door jam to spread it open, and get a long stick and pop the door handle..
You can probably find something on the ground if your in the woods.

This happened to me once because I left my fog lights on, and I use to lock my keys inside my truck and use my keypad. I used either a screwdriver or my antenna to push open the latch on my hood and then jumped it off

That's smart. May work.

My hood latch cable froze years ago and I tore the handle off. For 2 years I used a bread knife to open hood. Very easy. Just trip lever at bottom of latch assembly with tip of knife. Quick boost and your in

If you get a key that works take it to Home Depot and they can copy it to one without a chip for $2. Wire the $2 key in one of the holes in the frame somewhere and never get locked out again.
