Have a spare battery in your wallet if you do the keyhole delete next time perhaps. This does not help now though. Sorry.

I would leave that to a professional though.

But can you remove the keyhole cover with something.

OMG Slim jim Really?!!! Pop the delete off! I can pull mine off without even using tools.

Or how about go buy a new battery? If all else fails throw a brick through the window.

why dont you just remove the keyhole delete the same way you removed the original one?
Then you can you use your key to unlock. OR

if you have some fairly strong wire, bend it into a hook and look through the grill, there will be a black wire going across up near the radiator shroud, hook the wire hook onto it and pull, this will pop the latch. I did this when i incorrectly reinstalled the shroud a while ago.
