First of all, a big thank you to every single one of you who offered me advice on the matter.
I bought two 64mm barrels from a member here. The 64mm barrel raised my pitch by around 2Hz. The big factor, however, turned out to be the temperature. At the time I was complaining about my low pitch, the ambient temperature was around 13C. A week or so ago, I checked my pitch again when the temperature was around 25C. I played comfortably at around 441Hz with my 64mm DEG barrel.
I don't recall such sensitivity of pitch to temperature on other instruments I played. Is the clarinet notorious for this?
