I tend to have ~/lib/perl/ and install modules under that if I
don't have root access. (Use PREFIX=~/lib/perl at install).

You'll need something like 

use lib '/home/yourself/lib/perl/';

at the top of your script, so that Perl goes and searches that
directory for modules.

perldoc perlmodinstall will give you more information on installing
modules from CPAN.

Cheers.
