C-h f set-frame-position will give you the info you need

Interactively, you can use `M-x frame-to-top-left', with this defition:

(defun frame-to-top-left ()
  "Move selected frame to top left of display"
  (interactive)
  (set-frame-position (selected-frame) 0 0))

See also commands `move-frame-horizontally' and `move-frame-vertically' in
library `do-re-mi-frames.el', here:
http://www.emacswiki.org/elisp/do-re-mi-frames.el. They let you move frames
around incrementally using the arrow keys.
