To find which motor you are using.. the simplest way is check how many leads that stepper motor has.. if its a 5 or 6 lead motor then its a unipolar stepper motor..
if its a 4 lead motor then its a bipolar stepper motor.. more information on stepper motor you can get in the tutorial section.

Regarding the driving of stepper motors.. you can use transistors, L293D, ULN series and but the reason for using ULN is its easy to interface.. and need less space on board that the only main reason we use ULN2003 to interface stepper motors.
