I am not an expert with sumatrana, but I did have one plant before. So my advise might not be the best... Anyhow, here goes...
Mine was a 10cm diameter plant when I got it and I place it under about 60% shade cloth. That plant was stagnant in growth for about 6 months before it started to grow new leaves and pitchers. Then I allow it to get direct sunlight in the late evenings after a year when it has produced a few pitchers for me and has grown bigger.
It's media was sphagnum moss and perlite about 50/50
