Basically it is the same as with filesystem-based datafile. Use the fully qualified pathname of the raw partition as the datafile name, that's it.

E.g., your raw partition is /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s3

Then you should use a datafile clause like ... datafile '/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s3' size some_size ...

If you use a volume management like DiskSuite or Veritas/Sun OEM Volume Manager you will have datafile name like these:

DiskSuite (without metasets)		/dev/md/rdsk/metadevice_name
Volume Manager					/dev/vx/rdsk/diskgroup_name/volume_name

Again, using the examples for fielsystem-based datafile, simply substitute the filename with the full qualified pathname of the raw device.

Hope this helps.
