If you don't have admin privileges on the box, the best solution would be to use local::lib[1] to install Perl modules in your home directory for you (#perl IRC channel on FreeNode, or perlmonks are really helpful). I really recommend it, together with cpanm[2] (which can configure local::lib for you, via --local-lib option), though the latter is not necessary.

You have to install subversion-perl somewhere, not only build it. Though you could fiddle with PERL5LIB (which is PATH-like environmtne variable to specify where to search for Perl modules) to make Perl find your built but not installed Alien::SVN.
