The position in the diagram can not be forced therefore the draw.  And the
position shown could not be the final position in your game as you stated you
had just captured an opponents pawn.  Pawns are not on your opponents first rank
and it would have to have been white's move not black's.

The only way for this position to occur is if white had just moved his bishop to
h7.  However, if he had left the bishop where it was and moved the king to h7
instead, there is no mating move.
