Either Login to RHN and perform a package search for 'kernel-smp' and 
find it from the resultant listing.

Or with your Enterprise Linux 3 system use up2date with the --get option 
to download it, where up2date will store the rpm within 
/var/spool/up2date/ and you can move the rpm and do with it as you please:
[root@ root]# up2date --get kernel-smp-2.4.21-27.0.4.EL.i686
