You need to put the image as binary encoded to the body, not the image's path. If you are using the Ruby client lib, it's quite easier.

drive = client.discovered_api('drive', 'v2')
media = Google::APIClient::UploadIO.new(file_name, mime_type)
result = client.execute(
  :api_method => drive.files.insert,
  :media => media,
  :parameters => {'uploadType' => 'media'}
)
