I'd give the chicken about 5 hours in my SC but yours may have different settings.
Basmati rice works well in place of pudding rice.
And HERE is the Complete Slow Cooker Collection and Quick questions on Slow cookers.

Pudding rice is short-grain rice. Long-grain rice won't give you that creamy texture which you normally get with rice pudding. It will be perfectly edible, but I think you would be disappointed.

If you still can't find pudding rice in the desserts aisle as suggested then I would go for a risotto rice to get the starchiness you want.

However, I think risotto rice will probably be a bit more expensive than pudding rice.
