You can create a new custom module. In the event observer capture the even checkout_onepage_controller_success_action and create a method in the observer and complete your logic in the method.

Hope you know how to create a new module.

1 ) here is custom config.xml for call observer file

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
    <Namespace_Modulename>
        <version>0.1.0</version>
    </Namespace_Modulename>
</modules>
<frontend>
    <events>            
        <checkout_onepage_controller_success_action>
            <observers>
                <Namespace_Modulename_Customevent>
                    <type>singleton</type>
                    <class>Namespace_Modulename_Model_Observer</class>
                    <method>customFunction</method>
                </Namespace_Modulename_Customevent>
            </observers>
        </checkout_onepage_controller_success_action>
    </events>
</frontend>    

2 ) create observer.php file inside your module/Model directory and paste this code

<?php
class Namespace_Modulename_Model_Observer
{
public function customFunction(Varien_Event_Observer $observer)
{
    $order = $observer->getEvent()->getOrder();
     //here you can add your custom code

}
}

Do not forget active your module before check.To activate your module upload this file(Namespace_Modulename.xml) to your Path(app\etc\modules)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<config>
<modules>
    <Namespace_Modulename>
      <active>true</active>
      <codePool>local</codePool>
    </Namespace_Modulename>
</modules>
