To create site collection programmatically by using server object model use SPWebApplication .Sites.Add method. it has 12 overloads. choose any one which suits you. In this given code I am creating a site collection on host header (not on root site).

using Microsoft.SharePoint;
using Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration;
Code:
public void CreateSitecollection(string url, string title, string description, string ownerLogin, string ownerName, string ownerEmail, SPWebApplication webApp)
{
Uri urlNewSite = new Uri(url);
try
{
if (!SPSite.Exists(urlNewSite))
{
using (SPSite newSiteCollection = webApp.Sites.Add(
url,// url of the new site,give full url if you want to create site on host header else"/sites/anyname"
title,// title of the new site
description,//description
1053,//LCID
"WT_CollaborationSite",//give custom template naem
ownerLogin,// login anme like "corp\devuser"
ownerName,// name
ownerEmail,// email id of the primary user
ownerLogin, // secondry user
"",
"",
true))// user host header
{
}
}
else
{
throw new ArgumentNullException("Site already exists");
}
}
catch (Exception)
{
}
}
use this code anywhere like in a timer job or in a console application. give the "STS#0" in the template name if you want to use team site template.

Cool idea, it would be even cooler if it worked!
