The $shipping variable is indeed the one that you want but it is a session variable which is probably why you are having difficulty.

The appropriate setting for the $shipping variable to select the Flat Rate shipping method is flat_flat.

You will also need to modify the checkout_payment.php and checkout_confirmation.php pages as they contain checks to ensure that a shipping method has been selected otherwise you will be redirected back to the checkout_shipping.php page.

You would be better off setting the value at the beginning of the checkout_payment.php page.
