That is a source rpm. It contains the source files and settings to
build the binary packages for a target system. Installing it would give
you the files necessary to run it through rpmbuild. You would then need
to install the resulting package, assuming you have all of the required
by the way for future reference yum provides */kalarm would have
told you if it was in a package with a different name than you expect.
also I always check rpm.pbone.net its very useful for finding rpm's in
3rd party repos.

If you look carefully at that repo, you will notice that 0.8 is
this version is independent,
http://pkgs.repoforge.org/kaffeine/kaffeine-0.8.7-1.rf.src.rpm
can it be installed with yumex? or should i use one of these,
su yum localinstall kaffeine-0.8.7-1.rf.src.rpm
yum install kaffeine-0.8.7-1.rf.src.rpm
su -c 'yum -y install kaffeine-0.8.7-1.rf.src.rpm'
