People usually edit TNSNAMES.ORA and include database B alias in there, and then

create database link dblink
  connect to username_on_B
  identified by password_on_B
  using 'database_B_tnsnames_ora_alias';

Or, without TNSNAMES.ORA, something like this:

create database link dblink
 connect to username_on_B
 identified by password_on_B
 using '192.168.1.2:1521/dbB_service_name';
                    ----
                    port
