SVN keywords will always have the keyword name prefixed, there is no
way round that. Also remember that SVN keywords give the revision of
the particular file they reside in, not the working copy as a whole.
You probably want to use SubWCRev instead which will take a template
file and produce a working file with particular keywords substituted
completely. Look in the manual to find out how this works.
