The current implementation of C-b is:

(defun isearch-del-char ()
  "Discard last character and move point back.
If there is no previous character, just beep."
  (interactive)
  (if (equal isearch-string "")
      (ding)
    (setq isearch-string (substring isearch-string 0 -1)
          isearch-message (mapconcat 'isearch-text-char-description
                                     isearch-string "")))
  (isearch-search-and-update))

But you can change it if you find a better solution.
