I tried to install the package though the package manager ppm but the module wasn't in the list of available modules

You'll have to try and find a repository that does have the modules you need. Start the ppm gui (ppm in the console as suggested earlier), and click Edit/Preferences. The Trouchelle and Bribes repos, plus a few others may be preconfigured; if they are, you just need to enable them and gain access to many modules the AS repository doesn't have.
