new stuff I don't know.

background: My electric stove/range died. It has already been taken to the recycler ($30 to drop off). I have a new to me gas range, a KitchenAid. Back in the day when the electric dryer died for the last time, I called someone to extend the gas service from the furnace across the basement to the dryer, and had the appliance connector connected to the appliance. I anticipated that someday I would want to replace my electric range with a gas range and had a stub placed in the gas line as it was routed past the kitchen on the way to the dryer.

However, the "stub" is just a CSST/iron connector, iron tee, short iron nipple and cap, then onward downstream with another CSST/iron connector, and from there to the dryer waaaay over there. So the stub is just an iron break in the CSST (corrugated stainless steel) with a capped nipple. Nothing like this

I don't have anything coming up through the floor in the kitchen. That's the part I don't know. Can/should I do the work myself to connect this range? I'll need to extend the gas line from the stub up through the floor, from there it's really easy.

Iron pipe? Flexible copper? I know I'll need a shutoff valve at the end in the kitchen. A little help, please.
