If you don't want to use the epel repository, then you will need to get
 
perl-File-Copy-Recursive-0.38-1.el5.rf.noarch.rpm
 
from Dag's Repositories accessible at (among others)
  ftp.rpmforge.net/pub/ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/dag/redhat/el5/en/x86_64 

His repository has a rich and <mostly> up to date collection of perl
rpms.
