kdebase-crypto IS in non-free. I have it installed from that particular apt line, except I use unstable (actually, I had some problems with non-US some time back so also added ftp.debian.nl, but that shouldn't matter too much as they're the same computer). Perhaps you just caught a weird setup where it got dropped from testing temporarily. Either wait the temporary problem out or jump to unstable for a bit.
