Why not call it /positive-integer?/ and state in the docstring it defines
any integer i where i >= 0 as positive.
Or if you want to stick to Guiles /positive?/, maybe use
/positive-integer-or-zero?/.

Predicate names seem to work better if they describe what they're
testing for rather than what's being avoided.
