What is the equivalent for retrieving server side variables?

For example in PHP, one such predefined variable is: $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']

The ServerVariables collection is a collection of strings, so just do:

string strRemoteAddr = Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];

Besides, the collection returns null if there is no item by the
specified name, and calling ToString on a null reference causes an
exception.

You're quite correct - I should have been more specific.
