Yes, Satan appears as the snake in Genesis, goes up to God and cons him into a bet that Job will disavow God if everything is ripped away and God goes along with it. Hell, I believe is referenced a few times as Sheol. In the NT, Hades appears as well as the lake of fire and the place where there's gnawing and nashing of teeth.

God does open up the earth and swallow nonbelievers in the OT, along with a bunch of other cruel shit, but I don't recall a place of eternal torment in the OT.

I don't believe there is any part that says the serpent is supposed to be Satan

Oh that's right. It's in Revelation (new testament) that describes Satan as the serpent of old, relating back to Genesis.
