I would write myself a bin->c converter similar to (untested):

   #include <stdio.h>
   int main(int argc, char *argv[])
   {
     FILE *in,*out;
     int value;

     in=fopen(argv[1],"rb");
     out=fopen(argv[2],"w");
     fprintf(out, "static unsigned char NAME_HERE[] = {\n");
     while(EOF != (value = fgetc(in))
       fprintf(out, "   %d,\n", value);
     fprintf(out, "};\n");
   }


Run it like: "bin2c file.wav file.c"

Edit file.c and give the array a better name, and include it in your 
project.

Finaly, use SDL_RWFromMem() instead of SDL_RWFromFile()
