There's also HackerRank that supports Perl among other languages and sets the time limit differently for each language (default is 9s for Perl, compared to 10s for Python and Ruby, or 2s for C and C++). There are many categories, you might be interested in the "Strings" subdomain in the "Algorithms" domain, or the "Regex" domain. Coincidentally, I'll be presenting some tricks I used to solve some of the tougher assignments at HackerRank at the Perl Conference in Amsterdam in two weeks.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
