E0704 (misplaced-bare-raise)

:x: Problematic code:

def foo(x): if x <= 10: raise 

:heavy_check_mark: Correct code:

def foo(x): if x <= 10: raise ValueError('x should be equal or grater than 10.') 

Rationale:

Used when a bare raise is not used inside an except clause. This generates an error, since there are no active exceptions to be reraised. An exception to this rule is represented by a bare raise inside a finally clause, which might work, as long as an exception is raised inside the try block, but it is nevertheless a code smell that must not be relied upon.
