Looks very much like it, that is my educated guess from the picture. Skunkbush is also tri-foliate and has a red stem like that when younger. It is a woody plant as it matures. If it is skunkbush it is very good wildlife forage. Deer love the high protein in the leaves and turkey use the small fruit when it does produce.

The vacant lot next door was full of it and it does cause me the itches. I call it poison ivy and it has the 3 leaves and the vine stems have the little legs that attach to the tree/shrub it's climbing. However, it does respond to brush and stump killer, and I've largely eliminated it from the lot.
