Solution

ping has nothing to do with HTTP or HTTPS:

Ping will use ICMP protocol, it belongs to TCP/IP

Ping operates by sending Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo request packets to the target host and waiting for an ICMP response.

Actually ping works at a much lower level than HTTP or HTTPS, and only accepts hostnames, not URLs.
