So, the module does exist, but not in a location included by @INC.

From the above error message it looks like

 /homedirs/kelleran/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8

is in @INC, but
 /homedirs/kelleran/local/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/

is not.  Strange.

Do you use local::lib?

No - Where should I use it?

local::lib is a way to install Perl modules / packages e.g. in your
home directory.  Please read and follow the instructions on local::lib
manpage ("The bootstrapping technique" section):

  http://search.cpan.org/~apeiron/local-lib-1.008004/lib/local/lib.pm

Then you can install Alien::SVN (or any other Perl package) using
'cpan' client (or intstall 'cpanm' / 'App::cpanminus').
