Metric for 2D de Sitter?

What is the correct metric to use for two dimensional de Sitter? If one starts with the following metric, which looks similar to de Sitter in 4 dimensions: $$ds^2 = -dt^2 + e^{2H t} dx^2,$$ one can calculate $R = 2H^2$ , and $R_{00} = -H^2$ , which gives the $Lambda = 0$ , which is not the solution one is looking for. What should be the correct metric to use for the same?
