Can Ext over a group ring always be expressed as group cohomology ?

Given a group $G$ and $G$-modules $M,N$ with $M$ $\mathbb{Z}$-free then it's well known that $$Ext_{\mathbb{Z}G}^i(M,N) \cong H^i(G,Hom(M,N))$$ for all $i \ge 0$ (a reference is Brown, Cohomology of …

Non-split extension of the rationals by the integers

Can someone describe explicitly an abelian group $A$ such that the extension $$0 \to \mathbb{Z} \to A \to \mathbb{Q} \to 0$$ doesn't split ? Background: The Stein-Serre theorem (Hilton, Stammbach: A …
