Aside from the possible lack of permissions that other answers have covered, your question says the error you get is:

PLS-00201: identifier UTIL_FILE must be declared

That suggests you've referenced UTIL_FILE, rather than the built-in package UTL_FILE, in your function. It might be an error you've introduced writing the question, of course, but you used it in the text too so maybe you have got the package name wrong in your code, if you didn't just copy-and-paste Tom's code.

You'll still need execute privileges on UTL_FILE anyway, if you don't have them already.
