God doomed the serpent in the Garden to crawl on its belly and eat dirt.

So... the serpent was not a 'snake' to begin with, right ?

There is some cultural commonality between dragons (which we know mythically) and snakes. This particular serpent “could” have been dragon like with capability of walking until God took away its legs. This could symbolize evil being doomed to defeat. It can slither but it is going to have trouble if it tries to walk. In fact it really needs to hijack other beings that CAN walk if it wants to go about by walking.
