open back door, lean in, lock driver's door - make sure key is stillin your hand - and close back door. Don't lose the chip form the key if you're just using the horse shoe bit of the key.

Ensure keys in hand/pocket.

Open rear door drivers side

Reach in lock car using the lock button on drivers door

Ensure keys still in hand/pocket

Shut rear door.

Car is now locked but alarm not set.

Should you leave the keys in the car doing this procedure ...  ..  :(

EDIT : Snap .. great minds etc etc etc..  :)
