That's called "appendix draw" IIRC.
A good holster should not need retention to keep the gun in, unless you're doing SWAT-like levels of activity (running flat out, climbing fences). Thumb snaps and other retention are mostly for security against gun grabs, which should be mostly N/A for CCW (unlike police who open carry).
Personally, I think you might be able to do better than the "one metal clip" type of IWB. There are other types out there. For appendix carry, you don't have much room, so you probably need a non-canted holster with the belt clip right on top of the holster.
Try a minimal-cant (5 degrees) one-piece Sidearmor IWB -- you can get them used on gun boards, like glocktalk or thehighroad. I think it might work for you; they seem well suited to mini-Glocks:

I can see if I see any holsters explicitly intended for appendix draw.

Some people recommend the High Noon Hideaway for Appendix IWB ("A-IWB") carry:
