ppm install failed: Can't find any package that provides SDL

If you're running Strawberry Perl, then the sisyphusion repo is already in the search path.
Therefore that message would indicate that you're running a version of perl that's not in the range 5.10.0 to 5.24.x.
If you're running Activestate Perl, then that repo won't be included, and you'll need to check the ppm documentation to find out how to add it/

If so please tell me where i can find this list

Run ppm set and look through the output.
On latest Srawberry Perl, I get:
C:\_32>ppm set Commands will be confirmed. Temporary files will be deleted. Download status will be updated every 16384 bytes. Case-insensitive searches will be performed. Package installations will continue if a dependency cannot be installe +d. Tracing info will not be written. Screens will pause after 24 lines. Query/search results will be verbose. Current PPD repository paths: Sisyphusion: http://www.sisyphusion.tk/ppm Packages will be built under: C:\_64\strawberry-vanilla-5.30.0\data\.p +pm
From that you can see the sisyphusion repo is already there. If I want to add another repo I can just run:
C:\_32>ppm set repo somewhereelse http://www.somewhere.else C:\_32>
And then re-run ppm set to confirm that the somewhereelse repo has been added:
C:\_32>ppm set Commands will be confirmed. Temporary files will be deleted. Download status will be updated every 16384 bytes. Case-insensitive searches will be performed. Package installations will continue if a dependency cannot be installe +d. Tracing info will not be written. Screens will pause after 24 lines. Query/search results will be verbose. Current PPD repository paths: Sisyphusion: http://www.sisyphusion.tk/ppm somewhereelse: http://www.somewhere.else Packages will be built under: C:\_64\strawberry-vanilla-5.30.0\data\.p +pm C:\_32>
I don't know if adding repositories on ActivePerl is achievable in the same way.

It would make the task of providing helpful information a whole lot simpler if you could post the output of perl -V

Cheers,
Rob
