try, /usr/pgsql-9.3/bin/pg_basebackup -V

if you don't have that path, you'll need to install postgresql-9.3 on
it, using the PGDG yum repository at http://yum.postgresql.org...

# yum install
http://yum.postgresql.org/9.3/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/pgdg-centos93-9.3-1.noarch.rpm
....
# yum install postgresql93
...

(note, the last command just installs the runtime libraries and
utilities, it does NOT install the postgresql 9.3 database server, that
is package postgresql93-server)
