Looking for a little habitat/substrate advice.

I have Ruthven's Kingsnake (Queretaro Kingsnake) and want to create the most realistic, natural habitat that I can.

I know that kings will do fine with bark, astroturf, newspaper, etc. but my goal here is to replicate it's natural habitat and have it look as fantastic as the snake itself. I realize this will require much more work, and be more expensive - but I'm ok with making this complicated.

So this particular snake's natural habitat is "Rocky upland areas of the Mexican Plateau, specifically the states of Michoacan, Quretaro, Jalisco."

Any suggestions on the substrate? Sand, gravel? Was also considering sand on half and some rocks/bark on the other? Anyone here from Michoacan lol?

Thanks
