The questiion is how are you there so to speak - ie in what role/position. As an intern, are you on a contract or employed. What are you employed as?
Now first, I assume a little in your own time means that this is gratis? This is not for money? If so you can not make a contract. A contract requires consideration to be valid. This could be enacted under a deed, but how much are you willing to spend to have a deed of assent drafted?
If you are employed, than an email stating that you have premission from someone with authority will suffice.
Regards,
Craig

Subject: Pen-Test as a favor
Hey, I'm working as an IT intern in a doctors office and I got
permission to do a little pen-testing on their servers on my own time.
How necessary would it be to get written permission before I take any
action? The Admin/CTO is a pretty good friend and I doubt would even
consider taking any legal action if anything happened.
If I do need a contract or something could someone point me in the
direction of a template. I have never even seen such a
contract/agreement before and I would never be able to write one up on
my own properly.
Thanks,
Chris Benedict
