[root@centos-master etc]# kubectl get pods

As was recommended by @char and @prometherion, in order to sort out this issue you probably need to supply KUBELET_ARGS parameters with appropriate --pod-infra-container-image flag as per link provided :

KUBELET_POD_INFRA_CONTAINER="--pod-infra-container-image=registry.access.redhat.com/rhel7/pod-infrastructure:latest"

You can also take into the consideration solution mentioned by @Matthew installing subscription-manager package and subscribe host OS, as described here.
