I do this in reverse.  I have a separate remember template per org file
I want so I do 

 C-M-r (pick remember template key)
 Enter details
 C-c C-c store the note to * Tasks in the file I selected
 C-u C-u C-M-r to get back to the note I just filed then
 C-c C-w to refile it to whatever task is appropriate

With the latest development version of org-mode you can start the clock
in the initial remember buffer and keep it running as you file and
refile the task.  In that case you can also use org-clock-goto to find
the task back easily.

You can set up templates for org-remember but I find the location I want
to file things changes too much to have static templates with fixed
locations.  Your mileage may vary.  My default remember templates file
to the * Tasks generic task in each file then I just refile it to the
right place depending on its content.

HTH,
Bernt
