in reply to making dumper to align perfectly

If by "align" you mean "insert a number of spaces (or a tab) at the start of each line", you're half-way there already 
my $d = Dumper $hash;;
$d =~ s/^/\t/gm;
print $d; # now indented

    There is an improvement in the alignment, but i dont know how to get as i expected. It gives this output, 
    My hash-> $VAR1 = {
          'a' => '1',
          'b' => [
                   1,
                   2
                 ]
        };

      Then you need to insert more spaces. It's not hard to get from my suggestion to what you want. Show some effort.

      You just don't bother trying to adapt solutions given to you. 
      my $d = Dumper $hash;
my $somanyspaces = ' 'x10; # how long is your string?
# add to all lines whitespaces
$d =~ s/^/$somanyspaces/gm;
# add to first line your string
$d =~ s/^$somanyspaces/I am lazy /;
print $d; # now indented
