Something like this?

my $x = rand(65536); foreach (@lines) { open(my $fh_out, '>', sprintf('prefix%04X.txt', $x)) or die; print $fh_out $_; $x = ($x + 1) % 65536; }

I'm not sure how useful it is to start at a random number if you only increment afterwards.

Update: Ah! you're not refering to the variable named $RANDOM that exists in some shells. You're refering to some randomly named variable.

my $x = 0; foreach (@lines) { open(my $fh_out, '>', sprintf('prefix.%04d.txt', $x++)) or die; print $fh_out $_; }

Or if you are reading from file handle,

while (<$fh_in>) { open(my $fh, '>', sprintf('prefix.%04d.txt', $.)) or die; print $fh_out $_; }
