Street kid gets one punter riled (11)

I believe the answer is:

guttersnipe

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'street kid' is the definition.
'guttersnipe' can be an answer for 'kid' (I have seen 'poor kid' mean 'guttersnipe' so perhaps 'kid' could also mean 'guttersnipe'). I am not certain of the 'street' bit.

'gets one punter riled' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'riled' indicates an anagram (letters must be irritated or riled up).
'gets'+'i'+'punter'='getsipunter'
'getsipunter' with letters rearranged gives 'GUTTERSNIPE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for guttersnipe that I've seen before include "Scruffy street child" , "poor kid" , "Street urchin" , "Person behaving as one brought up in squalor" , "(Neglected) child of the streets" .)
