Yup, a madura keris it is. As Rick mentioned, you need to clean it to remove all the rust, using citrus or pineapple juice to start. The blade may not be the best workmanship but interestingly, the pamor is not common. Here you have pamor dhadung muntir (in javanese term for twisting rope?). Overall, its a nice keris. You may want to change the hilt. I prefer the hilt to be something like below.
