The easiest way would be to put your code into a stored procedure, then simply have the trigger call it. That way, you could also call the program manually.
If the procedure was called MY_PROC, for instance and took an input variable of ID_NUM_IN, you could call it thus:
SQL> exec my_proc(id_num_in=>44);
