Have you looked at "9.1.3 Capture templates" in the documentation?
http://orgmode.org/manual/Capture-templates.html

It seems to me that the example TODO entry given (using "%a" in the
template) will do what you describe:

,----
| During expansion of the template, %a has been replaced by a link to
| the location from where you called the capture command. This can be
| extremely useful for deriving tasks from emails, for example.

Best,
Josiah
