That is a seriously ancient version of Perl you have there. You may
like to ask your admin to do something about it.
Assuming you have read
http://www.cpan.org/misc/cpan-faq.html#How_use_private
or similar, you can try a few things.
does
find /home/sravi/perl -print
give you the result you expect?
What happens if you set the use lib line to eg
use lib qw(/home/sravi/perl/perl5/site_perl/5.00404);
or wherever it is the module has actually been installed? You may have
to toy with this.
