You can use Puppet to install and remove kernel packages.  You can control 
what version of a given package must be installed.  You can use facts to 
determine which kernel version is currently running -- there are built-in 
facts for this.

You can specify specific package versions that are supposed to be 
installed, and Puppet will attempt to achieve it.  As with most things 
related to packages, this works best when the underlying package manager 
relies on a package repository somewhere, as many do.  You can also ask 
that Puppet ensure the latest available version of a given package is 
installed.  Refer to the docs for the Package resource type: 
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/3.stable/type.html#package
