I find it hard to find a good answer to your question because you give no
reason why you want to reject the ('0', '0') result.
Are you uninterested in 0 results?
Are you only interested in lines that start with MEMR and so are not interested
in lines where the MEMR comes later?
In the first case you can write:
print(re.findall(r'MEMR\s+\:\s+([1-9][0-9]*)\s+valid \s+([1-9][0-9]*)\s+free', str_output))
In the second case you can write:
regex = re.compile(r'^MEMR\s+\:\s+([0-9]+)\s+valid \s+([0-9]+)\s+free', re.MULTILINE)
print(regex.findall(str_output))
