That would work, If you can get to the hardware store all of those pieces will cost you about $9. The T is only like $0.40, the three barbed fittings are about $1 each, and the valve will be about $5. You won't need the extra coupler they have on each side of the T though if you get a T that is threaded. You will also want a some hose clamps. Those will work perfectly fine though if you don't want to attempt it yourself.
