Does the VM have a NIC?  What are the results of

   ls /sys/class/net/

You should have a eth0.  The udevadm test generates the 
70-persistent-net.rules file:

$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
# This file was automatically generated by the /lib/udev/write_net_rules
# program, run by the persistent-net-generator.rules rules file.
#
# You can modify it, as long as you keep each rule on a single
# line, and change only the value of the NAME= key.

# PCI device 0x8086:0x10de (e1000e)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", 
ATTR{address}=="00:25:64:38:ec:dd", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", 
NAME="eth0"
