Perl RPM packages also list all the modules they provide, just in case
what you need isn't the top-level module.

$ yum provides 'perl(XML::Parser)'
perl-XML-Parser.i386 : A low level Perl module for parsing XML either via trees 
or streaming

The install command also works with provides.

$ sudo yum install 'perl(XML::Parser)'
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
Requested dep: perl(XML::Parser) is provided by installed package
Nothing to do
