Why not pour a concrete stem wall to a foot above grade on the right side (looking from front) and rear and maybe along the drive a few feet.

My shop here is 6' underground on the rear side. I put a stem wall all the way around so I could wash it out and not worry about damaging anything.

I have a similar situation to yours at my house, and when I build there I'm going to do a stem wall and backfill to grade. At my house the back wall will be 6 to eight feet underground.
