I have created a trace template called (RNTrace) that I need to run daily from 5am to 9am.
I know the trace has a 'stop' time, but how can I add it to a job?

You can use the built in SP sp_trace_create in a stored procedure to create a trace specifying a stop time. Check it out and others in BOL. There is also a built in SP that can be used to stop the trace: sp_trace_setstatus. I have a series of stored procedures that I set up to execute predefined templates. I pass a stop time when I create the trace, but just for safety, once I want to stop the traces from running, I execute sp_trace_setstatus to change the status to stop. You can execute this query to determine which traces are currently running and call sp_trace_setstatus to stop any you need to stop.
SELECT @Value = Value
FROM ::fn_trace_getinfo(@TraceID)
WHERE Property = 5

the easiest way is to open profiler and create a trace using your template.
Then export the trace-settings to a sqlscript.
Add a appropriate filename (see generated script) and copy/paste it to a new job.
Schedule it and off you go.
The script should be something like this ...
This one runs for 1hour and 15 minutes and generates a file called 'C:\ALZDBA_SQL_Trace**.trc'
declare @StartStopEnd varchar(5)
declare @TraceID int
declare @RunDays smallint
declare @RunHours smallint
declare @RunMinutes smallint
declare @PlanNY char(1)
-- standaard voor 15 minuten ingesteld
Select @RunDays = 0
, @RunHours = 1
, @RunMinutes = 15
Select @StartStopEnd = 'Start', @TraceID = 0, @PlanNY = 'N'
-- Select @StartStopEnd = 'Stop', @TraceID = xxx
-- Select @StartStopEnd = 'End' --, @TraceID = xxx
if upper(@StartStopEnd )= 'START' goto StartTrace
else
begin
if upper(@StartStopEnd )= 'STOP' goto StopTrace
else
begin
if upper(@StartStopEnd )= 'END' goto CleanupTrace
else
begin
Print 'Ongeldige @StartStopEnd kode [' + @StartStopEnd + ']'
goto finish
end
end
end
goto finish

declare @maxfilesize bigint
declare @DateTime datetime
set @DateTime = dateadd(dd,@RunDays,dateadd(hh,@RunHours,dateadd(mi,@RunMinutes,getdate())))

set @maxfilesize = 5000 -- Mb
