Yes, you could do it as root in /usr/src/redhat/ or as a regular user by
putting the following in your ~/.rpmmacros.

	# ~/.rpmmacros
	%packager %(echo "$USER")
	%_topdir %(echo "$HOME")/rpmbuild

Then create the directories that rpmbuild needs.

	mkdir ~/rpmbuild 
	mkdir ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES 
	mkdir ~/rpmbuild/RPMS 
	mkdir ~/rpmbuild/BUILD 
	mkdir ~/rpmbuild/SRPMS

Then rebuild the kernel.

	rpmbuild --rebuild kernel-xyz.src.rpm
