Dear,
You have create custom page using User controls and webpart. Then you can use .Net code Logic for generating request id.

Use Object model for inserting items in List. Below is steps for that

Steps:
1. Create an User Control and use Microsoft.Sharepoint namespace by using keyword.

2. on add or submit button, use your generate requiest id logic and then SPSite mySite=new SPSite["Url"];
SPWeb myWeb=mySite.openWeb();
SPList myList=myWeb.List["ListName"];
SPListItem NewItem = ListName.Items.Add();
use columns as you have
myList.Name=txtName.text.trim();
Same as other columns
NewItem["Name"] = txtAskSaad.Text;
NewItem"Date"] = System.DateTime.Now;
CurrentWeb.Update();

3. Create a class type solution in Visual Studio 2005 and then
use user control on that webpart.

3. deploy solution
4. entry in web.config as safe control

and use this webpart in your application

Hope it will help you.
