You are thinking in an earthly way - the Nachash wasn’t a snake. God was punishing him and using terminology that is symbolic of his judgement.So the "shinning one" was given a punishment that he should crawl on his belly?
just like when Abel’s blood was crying out to God - it wasn’t literally crying.
The serpent was a divine being - a Nachash, which are also called Seraph(the Seraphim)
Go to the Hebrew. When God told Moses to put a “fiery serpent”, God said put a SERAPH on a pole, and Moses put a NACHASH on a pole.
