Personally, I use a 'drracket' submodule so that this submodule isn't executed from the command line, but gets executed from within DrRacket. This is particularly useful to avoid outputting graphical objects (such as plots) that can't be displayed on the command line.
After pressing Run in Dracket, entering the submodule allows me to access whatever is defined in the submodule from the interactions window. The 'drracket' submodule is not officially supported, but you can add it yourself in the "Submodules to run" list in DrRacket.
