You might be able to do what you want with anycontent.php.  Modify it as desired, and add the block anycontent to "content of the main page" on the config panel (under album list view).  Read the docs or click on the help icon next to "content of the main page" for more information.

You can also add straight HTML to themes/yourtheme/template.html, making sure to edit it carefully.  Read the docs for this information as well.  You should make a copy of the raindrop theme to a new folder (with a new name) and modify the new theme, so you can always go back to the default raindrop theme if necessary; it also makes upgrades easier since all the default themes are part of any upgrades.
