    In this Letter, we introduce a new inline model for stimulated Raman scattering (SRS), which runs on our radiation hydrodynamics code TROLL. The modeling follows from a simplified version of a rigorous theory for SRS, which we describe, and accounts for nonlinear kinetic effects. It also accounts for the SRS feedback on the plasma hydrodynamics. We dubbed it PIEM because it is a fully PredIctivE Model, no free parameter is to be adjusted \textit{a posteriori}~in order to match experimental results. PIEM predictions are compared against experimental measurements performed at the Ligne d'Int\'egration Laser. From these comparisons, we discuss PIEM ability to correctly catch the impact of nonlinear kinetic effects on SRS
