You can never match against a Query string using Redirect (mod-alias) directive. To manipule query strings you need to use mod-rewrite the following rule in /root.htaccess

RewriteEngine on


RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^rid=(.+)$
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ http://example.com/folder/some-name-%1.htm? [NC,L,R]
