A numerical model based on the finite-difference time-domain method is developed to simulate fluctuations which accompany the dephasing of atomic polarization and the decay of excited state's population. This model is based on the Maxwell-Bloch equations with c-number stochastic noise terms. We successfully apply our method to a numerical simulation of the atomic superfluorescence process. This method opens the door to further studies of the effects of stochastic noise on light-matter interaction and transient processes in complex systems without prior knowledge of modes.
