It is a clamp that holds a test tube -- for instance to hold a test tube while heating it without getting burned.

A clamp is a way to hold a single test tube while heating the contents inside without actually touching the test tube itself. A rack is instead used to hold many test tubes at once in an upright position. See the Related Questions links below for more information on test tube racks.
