The problem is you're effectively playing 25bb deep with a $250 starting stack and a $10 straddle on. You can't raise 3x from the SB with a hand that doesn't really play all that well post flop.
If you had KJs, a little better, but still pretty marginal. I'd feel better raising TT+, AK, AQs, and KQs. Even then, we need to be careful post flop.
If you were starting 200bb deep, and have the right image, and good reads on your opponents, you can get out of line first to act, and raise a speculative hand like KJo. But even then, those unsuited Broadway gappers are mostly just alluring trash, like a computer printer sitting on someone's curb. You know that $h1t won't work.
