Forever, unless it's a misdemeanor traffic warrant, they are typically removed after three years.

Until it is served either by arrest or surrender. You should find out what the bail is, arrange for it, and surrender, so that your life will not be turned upside down. Any law enforcement officer may arrest you without probable cause.
