I suggest you buy a small worm farm, all the instructions should be with it. You feed them food scraps but no citrus or onions, and certainly no meat products as this attracts flies.

Many local libraries will have all the info it could be in the gardening section.

How long are you planning on attempting to keep them alive for?

I know BBS with an air stone can live for days.

i had a bunch of tubifex worms, and i put them in a little 2.5 gallon tank with a sand bottom.

I would drop a few shrimp pellets in every few days, and i didnt clean the water out that much since they prefer dirtyer water, although i did keep it clean.

they lived for a few months untill i got tired of feeding them, i just scooped them all out and fed all of them to my fish
