If you are talking about the serpent that got Adam and Eve kicked out of the Garden of Eden, then it wasactually Satan. He disguised himself as a serpent, or snake if you want to call it that, and tempted Eve with it. so it was neither man nor snake. It was a fallen angel, Satan.

Was the serpent possessed by a demon so it could talk to Eve?
A:No, there is no suggestion in the Bible that the serpent was possessed by a demon. If that had been the case, God could have driven the demon out, just as the gospels describe Jesus as driving demons out. Genesis 3:14 describes God as punishing the snake and all its descendants for its part in the first sin, so God saw the serpent as responsible, not some demon. Of course, we know that snakes are physically incapable of speech, but we should see this story as an allegory not a true history of man's fall from a paradise.
Did Satan show up to Adam and Eve as a snake or angel?
Genesis chapter 3 is quite clear that it was a serpent, or snake, that tempted Eve. Verse 3:1 describes the serpent as the most subtle, or clever, of the beasts, so in the story, this really was Satan in the form of a snake.The NET bible Notes on Genesis 3:2 state explain that:Genesis 3:2 [NET] "The woman said to the serpent, "We may eat of the fruit from....."2sn Many theologians identify or associate the serpent with Satan. In this view Satan comes in the disguise of a serpent or speaks through a serpent. This explains the serpent's capacity to speak. While later passages in the Bible may indicate there was a satanic presence behind the serpent (see, for example, Rev 12:9), the immediate context pictures the serpent as simply one of the animals of the field created by God (see vv. 1, 14). An ancient Jewish interpretation explains the reference to the serpent in a literal manner, attributing the capacity to speak to all the animals in the orchard. This text (Jub. 3:28) states, "On that day [the day the man and woman were expelled from the orchard] the mouth of all the beasts and cattle and birds and whatever walked or moved was stopped from speaking because all of them used to speak to one another with one speech and one language [presumed to be Hebrew, see 12:26]." Josephus, Ant. 1.1.4 (1.41) attributes the serpent's actions to jealousy. He writes that "the serpent, living in the company of Adam and his wife, grew jealous of the blessings which he supposed were destined for them if they obeyed God's behests, and, believing that disobedience would bring trouble on them, he maliciously persuaded the woman to taste of the tree of wisdom."

What was the name of the serpent in the tree that told eve to eat the apple?
The Bible does not give the snake a name. The snake was a common motif in ancient religions right around the ancient Near East. We can regard it as a a remnant of even more ancient animist beliefs or we can adopt the more recent Christian approach of believing that the snake was Satan, who would have made his task more difficult by pretending to be a snake.Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis), says that we can learn most from the story by regarding it as a mythical yet realistic portrait of permanent truths about our humanity, rather than as a historical yet idealised portrait of a blissful existence we were tricked out of.
Was the snake Satan in the garden of eden?
It was a serpent in the Garden and the serpent spoke to Eve. There is no indication that the serpent was a snake or that it was not in some other form before God found out what Eve and Adam had done. It was then that God told the serpent that he would crawl on his belly and eat the dust of man forever. Why would God curse something that already was. In other words God would not curse the serpent to not walk if it was already not walking. So it stands to reason that if the serpent was cursed to crawl then it was apparently walking before the curse that God put on it. Plus it also communicated to Eve to disobey God's law.Serpent is a word of Latin origin (from serpens, serpentis "something that creeps. So couldn't the creeper have been something else that creeped. Maybe a fallen angel that worked against God and when God discovered what he had done cursed this angel and all of its offspring to crawl on its belly forever thus a snake.
