The bad news is that SB1500 is not one of the machines QEMU can emulate.
The probably good news is QEMU can emulate some sparc machines pretty well.
What software are you trying to emulate? Is it available for Solaris 9?
If so, sun4m Emulation (SS-5 or SS-20) is the best choice.
Otherwise you may try your luck with a sun4v Niagara machine.
