I think it's a bad plan to directly hook up the motor to your cpu. Most microcontrollers don't like it when you draw more then say 25mA from a pin and changes are your motor is consuming more. So I think it would be a wise choice to add a transistor and control that via the I/O pin (by for instance writing a 1 to that pin). The specific name for that pin to use in your code can usually be found in the included headers.
