most typically .h files are included in a -dev package, but I dunno about
this one.   googling rh-ruby22, I find, oops, its EOL, and replaced with
rh-ruby23

https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/rh-ruby23/

btw, with the SCL stuff, note the "scl enable rh-ruby23 bash" command, that
spawns you a shell with that packages directories in the path... that might
make this work. see that page for more details, including a gem run.
