How do I wire this timer enclosure through the wall? (www.amazon.com)

Hello! I bought this enclosure to install a sprinkler timer. It comes with a GFCI outlet, and where I want to install it is next to another GFCI outlet mounted in the wall (outdoors). I thought it would look better to run some wires in the wall, off the GFCI, and into the back of the box so I don't see the power cable on the outside of the house. What is the correct way to run that wire through the wall?

Hey, thanks for the reply! My app didn't notify me, so, sorry for replying so late. I hadn't thought about replacing the outlet with the sprinkler box, and that's a good idea. I could also extend an on-the-wall outlet so I have some handy plugs.
