Most states, California being one of them, follow an agreement called the "Drivers License Compact", in which states agree to share information about a person's driving history. This means, if you are a California resident convicted of DUI in Nevada, your California driver's license will likely be suspended along with your ability to drive in Nevada. On the other hand, if you are a Nevada resident who is convicted of DUI in California, your Nevada license will likely be suspended along with your right to drive in California.
If you are arrested for driving under the influence in California and do not have a California driver license, the arresting law enforcement can not confiscate your out of state license, but can and will suspend your California driving privileges for 30 days. From the date of your arrest, you have 10 days to schedule a DMV hearing in order to challenge the suspension of your California driving privileges.
Additionally, if your home state is a part of the Driver's License Compact, the California DMV will notify the state's motor vehicle department of your arrest and conviction.
