If you are reluctant to create a local yum repository (maybe you don't
have many custom packages) you can just source a package from a web
server or the like:
package { "mypackage":
source => "http://my.package.server/rpms/mypackage-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm";,
ensure => installed,
before => "needsmypackage",
}

Puppet supports not just yum but a number of other package providers in
different OSes and OS distributions. It supports the yum features
needed to implement its package management mode.
