Any idea why opening a local file with ~ fails?
Pasting the link directly in Chrome works fine:
~/Library/Racket/7.9/doc/search/index.html
The Action require "file://" protocol along with absolute file path if you want to open the file, and file protocol don't understand ~ (from what I know)
Chrome application can do whatever it want to handle the URL the way it want but KM action is designed to handle the URL in its specific way.

First is, as @macdevign_mac noted, you don't have a valid URL.
But you should be able to display the file using the KM Open File and choose "Google Chrome" as the app.
small update:
Added ~ as a variable so it was passed down; also added "file://" to the URL as @macdevign_mac suggested:
