Default Which circuit?

My range hood vent died recently so I decided to replace it.

Just want to know if I am correct inassuming the 240 volts to the stove
would not normally be somehow split to power the 120 volt range hood.
Any hints on the project?

It definitely shouldn't be connected to the range line unless the hood
is an integral part of the range. If it's just a standard basic hood,
it's probably on the same circuit as the lights in the kitchen, or some
other lighting circuit
