All you have to do is install 2 tee's on the pipe that runs on the inside. This is called a lateral. It should be connected at both walls to pick up the water from the middle of the slab. Gravity is fine, just slope the pipe 1/4" per foot, maybe deeper near the crock depending on the level of your footer.
