Receiving sms from customer then putting to database

I am asking if this is possible or is there an existing service and what is it called?

We will have a raffle nationwide and for customers to be able to win they need to send us an sms. Is it possible that their text will go to a database located at net or something similar? And from there we will have random pick on the participants.

Yes, it's possible. But it depends on where the SMS messages are sent. Are they just going to a phone or is it to an SMS service? If so, there should be some sort of API you can use to collect them and use the platform of your choice (PHP, Python, etc) to put it in a database.
