The ragged left only takes place when a paragraph ends so simply put
"\par" before the end:

#+begin_src org
  ,#+BEGIN_LaTeX
  \begin{raggedleft}
  From "Loris' Adventures in Orgland"
  \par\end{raggedleft}
  ,#+END_LaTeX
#+end_src

Your code might look better this way, by the way:

#+begin_src org
  ,#+latex: \begin{raggedleft}
  From "Loris' Adventures in Orgland"
  ,#+latex: \par\end{raddedleft}
#+end_src

as you can then use org syntax on the text elements.

HTH,
eric
