The __method__ method should do the trick:

ruby -v: ruby 1.9.1p378 (2010-01-10 revision 26273) [x86_64-linux]
irb(main):001:0> def foo
irb(main):002:1> p __method__
irb(main):003:1> end
=> nil
irb(main):004:0> foo
:foo
=> :foo
irb(main):005:0>

That one is implemented since 1.8.7 I think. The class name is available 
via #class.
