You need to store the result in a variable. Something like:

new_url = CHROME_DOMAIN_URL
if (self.request.url.startswith('https'))
  new_url = CHROME_DOMAIN_URL.replace('http', 'https', 1)

...

self.redirect(new_url + ...)

       self.path.pop(0)  # 'chrome'
       for channel in ['dev', 'beta', 'stable', 'trunk']:
         if channel in self.path:
           position = self.path.index(channel)
           self.path.pop(position)
           self.path.insert(0, channel)
       self.redirect(CHROME_DOMAIN_URL + '/' + '/'.join(self.path), True)
       return False
     else:
       return True
