It's a little clunky, but you can do the kill from within perl by counting SIGSTOP's position in $Config{sig_name} (which, unfortunately, is a space-separated list rather than an array.)

perl -MConfig -le 'for( split /\s/, $Config{sig_name} ) { 
last if /^STOP$/; $n++ } kill $n, $$'

This just counts signal names until it gets to STOP, and $n will contain the right number.

There's no need to search signal number in $Config

kill STOP => $$;

will work just fine.
