Since you are new to XML, allow me to offer a different approach, based on XML::Twig, which, in my opinion, is no more difficult to learn than XML::Simple, and will work for a wider range of XML structures:
use strict;
use warnings;
use XML::Twig;
my $xmlStr = <<XML;
<sas_residue_annotation xmlns="http://url/Schema" xmlns:xsi="http://ww
+w.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://url/Sche
+ma WSsas.xsd">>

my $twig= new XML::Twig(
twig_handlers => { source_name => \&source_name }
);
$twig->parse($xmlStr);
exit;
sub source_name {
my ($twig, $name) = @_;
print $name->text(), "\n";
}
__END__

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.
