I probably misunderstand what you're trying to do with the stuff that
begins with \\(d\\(?:ef, but I imagine you'll be able to correct what
I've got.
(let ((p (rx "set"
(one-or-more space) "'" (group (one-or-more (or alnum (any "*-_."))))
(one-or-more space) (or "def" "does" "func" "function" "has" "lfinc" "sub")))
(input "set 'printf function"))
(string-match p input)
(match-string 1 input))

thinking. There is an almost universal quest for easy answers
and half-baked solutions. Nothing pains some people more
than having to think.
