Untested:

if (preg_match('/^http:\/\/[^\.\s]+\.[^\s]+\/$/i', $string))
    // valid string
else
    // invalid string

Should match a string beginning with 'http://', followed by one or more
characters that are no dots or whitespace, followed by a dot, followed by
one or more characters that are not whitespace, and terminated with a
slash. The terminating 'i' makes the search case insensitive.
