def METHOD_NAME(interval, callback):
    """Set a callback to run after the specified number of milliseconds has
    elapsed.
    The callback function is passed the current timer interval
    and returns the next timer interval.  If the returned value is the
    same as the one passed in, the periodic alarm continues, otherwise a
    new alarm is scheduled.  If the callback returns 0, the periodic alarm
    is cancelled.
    To cancel a currently running timer, call ``SDL_SetTimer(0, None)``.
    The timer callback function may run in a different thread than your
    main code, and so shouldn't call any functions from within itself.
    The maximum resolution of this timer is 10 ms, which means that if
    you request a 16 ms timer, your callback will run approximately 20 ms
    later on an unloaded system.  If you wanted to set a flag signaling
    a frame update at 30 frames per second (every 33 ms), you might set a
    timer for 30 ms::
          SDL_SetTimer((33/10)*10, flag_update)
    If you use this function, you need to pass `SDL_INIT_TIMER` to
    `SDL_Init`.
    Under UNIX, you should not use raise or use SIGALRM and this function
    in the same program, as it is implemented using ``setitimer``.  You
    also should not use this function in multi-threaded applications as
    signals to multi-threaded apps have undefined behavior in some
    implementations.
    :Parameters:
        `interval` : int
            Interval before callback, in milliseconds.
        `callback` : function
            Callback function should accept one argument, the number of
            milliseconds elapsed, and return the next timer interval,
            in milliseconds.
