Front Stairs are made from paver bricks in a half moon design, 3 steps up. House is vinyl siding , grass on both sides of the stairs.

  I don't have wood stairs, but if I did it would be a nice solution. I don't want to tear out the bricks if I can help it. Also the stairs are not straight , they're in semicircle design. Thank you for your suggestion.

Unless you do something custom, you will have a straight rail... You could make a very plain one, just in a U shape, so it's not too distracting. Alternative is to anchor posts normally but use bent material that mimics steps line. Metal would probably be the most cost effective and weather resistant. Sorry.

You can use a masonry drill bit to drill a hole for your bolt to fasten down the flange to hold your upright posts. You can use a 2 part epoxy to make sure they are in and stuck for good, make sure their level by using a level and brace to keep them level while it dries.
