The IRS considers this self-employment work and how you can report it depends on your total self-employment income.
If you made less than $400 from this work and any other self-employment income combined, then you can enter this on Line 21 for Misc Income. There is a $400 threshold for having to pay self-employment taxes, but this threshold is across all of your self-employment income.
However, if you made $400 or more from this work and any other self-employment income, then you need to pay self-employment taxes on it. You will have to enter it as business income (even though you may not think of yourself as having a business, that is how the IRS classifies this type of income). You can do so by performing a search for "Schedule C" and entering the income.
