That's not the way how it works.
You don't need a sources.list entry specific for a special package,
you need one for a Debian release, like Jessie.


Under https://www.debian.org/mirror/ at the top you will find:

"If you don't know which mirror to use or your system moves around a lot, 
you can use the mirror redirector service in your apt sources.list.
...
Use this address in your sources.list to use the mirror redirector:
http://httpredir.debian.org/debian   "

See http://httpredir.debian.org/


So you can use a sources.list entry like

	deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main

for Debian Jessie.
