ModemManager is what actually controls the modem, so you'd use
ModemManager to do so.  It provides a D-Bus interface (like
NetworkManager) and there's even a python example showing how to do it:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/ModemManager/ModemManager/tree/test/mm-send-sms.py?h=MM_05

Note that not all modems supported by ModemManager support sending SMS
at this time.
