Can you do: 

URLGRABBER_DEBUG=1 yum install whatever-youweretryingtoinstall

and paste the last 500 lines or so? 

That will usually show the issue. 
Often its: 

* Your machine time is vastly off so the ssl cert is not showing as
  valid yet. 

* You are behind a proxy so you need to configure that. 

* Your dns resolution isn't working. 

Also, there's a epel-devel list or the fedora users list for end user
queries like this. ;)
