Narrative:
I was sitting left seat as pilot not flying and my check airman was in the right seat conducting my captain upgrade IOE.shortly after takeoff; we heard a loud boom from the right-rear of the aircraft. Simultaneously; the right engine itt gauge indicated red-line and a temperature of 900 degrees celsius. (Maximum takeoff thrust had been used for takeoff due to increasing crosswinds and because the preceding takeoff had been a B-757 and we wanted better climb performance).we maintained aircraft control and complied with company checklists and performed QRH procedures for engine failure. Engine N1 readings and N2 readings were normal at idle thrust however; increasing thrust on affected engine resulted in rapid and non-normal increases in itt. We decided to divert to ZZZ for its longer runways for a single-engine landing. We continued to ZZZ with the affected engine at idle and landed after declaring an emergency. Upon landing; we shut down the affected engine and taxied to parking.we were notified that the tower controllers at our departure airport during our takeoff heard a loud bang and saw flames coming from our right engine.

Title: Following a loud bang and red line ITT readings on the right engine; the flight crew of a CRJ 200 decided to divert to an airport with a longer runway. After landing they; shut down the affected engine.
