You should have the modules included with your distribution by default. Try modprobe rtl8139, and if that doesn't work, try modprobe 8139too

I don't work with red hat, but i shoulden't be to diferent. Go to /etc/conf.modules(i don't know if this file existes in red hat) and were it says alias eth0 off.
put like this, alias rtl8139 on
this will boot the module in auto, now to put the ethernet running you must go to rc.conf
network_devices="_0"
ipaddrs="<your ip> broadcast <of your part of network netmask 255.255.255.0
this is it, but this is for lan, if you wish to connect to internet, you can follow the same steps, and when you boot, as root you do
dhclient eth0, and it will automaticly get your network ip address
I hope it was this you wore looking for.
