For the moment you can only see it on the main archive database:

$ rmadison r-base
r-base     | 2.15.1-4       | oldoldstable       | source, all
r-base     | 3.1.1-1        | oldstable-kfreebsd | source, all
r-base     | 3.1.1-1+deb8u1 | oldstable          | source, all
r-base     | 3.3.3-1~bpo8+1 | jessie-backports   | source, all

Ok, looking forward to it.

When it is ready, please follow the transition guidelines which are summarized
there:

  https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/ReleaseTeam/Transitions

The short version of it is: please open a transition bug and wait for an ack
from the Release Team *before* uploading R 3.5 to unstable (but of course you
are free to upload to experimental sooner).

Best,
