Not possible to determine if they are real by the serial number. The serial number is easier to fake than the devices. The only way you will know for sure if they are real is by purchasing from Apple or Authorized Apple seller. The counterfeit market is huge on these devices and if purchased anywhere else, you should expect them to be fake. Symptoms you will experience with fake AirPods include:
- Poor Audio
- Noise Cancellation not working
- Find My not working
- Problems when pairing to device
That serial number you provided does not come back to anything, but as stated already, even a valid serial number may be a copy from a legitimate device and would not prove the device is legitimate.
