Riddle statement

An urn contains 100 balls. Some are red and the rest are green.

You don't know how many red there are, except this: the number of red balls was chosen at random with the same probability between 0 and 100.

You draw a ball. It comes out red and you put it aside.

Now you are going to draw a second ball from the same urn.

What is the probability that this second ball is also red?
