A friend of mine runs a deck based on this idea, but instead of U/R he uses Brown Colourless/Red
He uses cards like Hedron Crawler as colourless mana ramp, another suggestion would be Hedron Archive. He uses Thought-Knot Seer for removal and Reality Smasher for fast damage with a discard counter trigger. You might want to include some control like spatial contortion (+3/-3) Kozilek's Return for board-wipes.
Green would help with ramp, Ruin in Their Wake, you might consider switching to Red/Green... If not... Use Herald of Kozilek to reduce colourless spell cost.

Consider taking out some of your larger creatures like Desolation Twin (10) and Breaker of Armies, they can be chump blocked for days, and they are NOT fast, put in an additional Ulamog, The Ceaseless Hunger.

You need to lower your mana curve, or place in Eldrazi Scions, to generate mana. Stuff like Skyspawner is a good choice. (I noticed you have a few)
Substitute in cards like Molten Nursery (You have a lot of devoid cards, so this will help)
Nettle Drone is dangerous in standard with cheap -1/-1 spells like Dead Weight, consider replacing it with Vile Aggregate

Lastly, I have to mention that it is worth using artefacts, as they are colourless. You can use Thopters and Servos to increase Vile Aggregate OR use Chief of the Foundry to boost your thopters.
