If yum is not installed on your vps/server, you can install it via ssh. First check the version of your OS. You can do that from shell:
cat /etc/redhat-release
If you are on CentOS 4, you can download yum rpm and its required packages and install them. Typically this is what is required on a plain CentOS 4.4 vps/server:
rpm -ivh sqlite-3.3.3-1.2.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh sqlite-devel-3.3.3-1.2.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh python-elementtree-1.2.6-4.2.1.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh python-sqlite-1.1.7-1.2.i386.rpm
rpm -ivh python-urlgrabber-2.9.8-2.noarch.rpm
rpm -ivh yum-2.4.3-1.c4.noarch.rpm
You can find these rpm files from centos.org public mirrors. Here is one working at the time of writing this KB:

Note: the above are exactly for CentOS 4.4. For other versions, you may need different packages/versions. You can try installing yum rpm for your particular version and rpm program will lead you to other required packages.
