If I understand you correctly - (1) You blew your whistle for a foul and (2) time expired and the horn blew very shortly afterwards.
In this case you would definitely shoot the free throws. Maybe you are questioning whether or not you should have put time back on the clock? Unless you saw the clock and more than 1 second expired from when you blew your whistle until the clock stopped, you should shoot the free throws with no players along the lane and then let the teams go to their locker rooms for halftime.
Sounds like you did it right.
