If you're looking to represent the protocol, the best way is to identify which port the traffic is on. I.E. port 80 means the session is likely HTTP, 443 is likely SSL, etc. There is no specific HTTP iRule command to return the protocol prefix (http, https, etc.).

But yes, other than that, [HTTP::host][HTTP::uri] will get you the entirety of the request.
