Hey their bratboy,
I am going to say the color should be Color Code RH for Inferno Red Crystal. Here is another Link with all interior, and exterior colors from 01 - 09 with the codes for the paint shop. You should be able to locate the code to confirm on the sticker on the inside of the drivers side door. Look at the bottom of the sticker for the code.

Honestly most over the counter ready mixed touch up paint will be pretty off from the color of your paint. Its way easier to touch up a neutral color like silver, white, or black, but richer more vibrant colors like Blues, and Reds are really hard to match up using regular touch up paint. Even professional Body Shops rarely will get a 100% perfect match on paint color. As a result, most Body Shops actually have to paint a lot larger section and blend the paint to the existing color over a wide area to trick the eye into not noticing the color difference. A good example of this is, I had a couple of small scratches in the center of my rear bumper. Due to my ride being a custom mix of House of Kolor Candy Tangerine Pearl, I, and because I show my car is mostly used as a full time show car, I had to shoot the entire bumper, and then blend the paint up about 5" into the trunk, and around the rear quarter panels so as not to tell that the paint has been repaired. The two primary reasons for this are:
1. The Chrysler Plant in Toluca Lake MX, as with many Manufacturers are well known for not being 100% accurate in color consistency. For example, one day they might add a bit more gold to the base color when mixing up the Red paint, and the following day they might add a bit less. Same thing goes when they mix touch up paint and 99.0% of the time it winds up being way off.
2. Once the paint on your car rolled out of the Paint Booth, your paint has started to fade, and deteriorate due to normal day to day exposure to the sun, weather, and other related conditions. Even if you , meticulously maintained the paint by polishing, glazing, and waxing, or using a synthetic Paint Sealant to help preserve the paint every 15 - 30 days, your paint is still going to be a couple of shades lighter within a mater of a couple of months at most. If your car is black, it would be within a matter of weeks due to higher heat concentration brought on by sunlight exposure. Because of this problem as well, you will find that the touch up paint will be either lighter, or darker by several shades, and may even look to be a totally different color most of the time.
Honestly for what it is worth, I would try to locate a Body Shop Supply Store in your area. They can look at your car in person and better match up the paint to your specific PT based on color, and paint condition. It is basically the same price, and you will have a much better final result. Also while you are their, if you want to do a good job on the touch up, you can pick up some wet/dry sandpaper for color sanding, and maybe a bottle of compound, glaze, and wax to smooth out the surface, buff, and bring back the finish to where it will look like a professional job.
If you would like me to do a write up walking you through how to touch up your paint to make it look pretty decent please let me know and I would be more than happy to help if you would like.
Or as an alternative depending on if you might have other scratches around the car, you can opt to have the repair work done the same way the large Automotive Dealerships do. Their are usually guys with mobile vans that offer air brushing services to Car Dealerships to clean up lot damage from moving cars around, or defects from delivery off the trucks, and so on. They come to your home, or work and air brush out all the scratches on the entire car to the point where you cannot tell where the repar was made. The cost of this is around $100.00 to $150.00 for the entire car which is expensive, but its the whole car, and its professionally done but at a fraction of the price.
That is my advice anyways. Again, if you would like me to walk you throught the process, please let me know and I will do a good write up for you.
Go easy.
