High-level explanation: You need to create a Yum repository for your custom RPMs (using the createrepo tool) on a accessible webserver somewhere on your network. You could put this on the puppet master itself if you want. You can then use the yumrepo puppet type to configure that repository on your puppet clients. Once you've done that, you can use the package type to install RPMs from that repository. You should use a requires parameter on your package type to ensure the yumrepo is configured first.
