I am not familiar with the Debian packages for PHP, you could download
the source package (which is all there really is anyway) from
http://pear.php.net. I believe that PEAR is installed with PHP normally
though, so you may already have it on your computer if you installed
PHP. Just do a "locate PEAR" and see if something comes up.
