Not sure if I understand what you mean by "trigger from user space",
but I think you mean "manually trigger without the need of real
network device"?

In that case, you could use Qemu.... Qemu could simulate several type
of network interface.... some of them are rtl8130 and e1000. The
complete supported model could be seen by using this command:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -net nic,model=?

qemu: Supported NIC models:
ne2k_pci,i82551,i82557b,i82559er,rtl8139,e1000,pcnet,virtio
