Use a plug-in called PHP Execution but make sure you save the page in code view otherwise it is likely to be deleted when you publish.

One thing to do is to create your own page template and place your php code in that.

To create a page template copy your page.php to formpage.php, at the top of your new template replace the original page.php definition with your own, like this:

<?php
/* 
Template Name: FormPage 
*/ 
?>

Add your php code to this new template and use the template when you write the page.
