The registration process is described in s7 of RFC 7518 (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc7518/).  In a nutshell you need a specification, which doesn’t have to take the form of an internet-draft but often does, for the algorithms and you need to submit the registration template.

Also note that I also think that the JOSE WG has started specifying a few of these already:
