Writing programs for the Atari 2600 is VERY difficult as the system is extremely limited.  If you have no experience programming, this is probably not a good place to start.  (Writing software for the other 8-bit consoles isn't much easier.)

Programming the VCS in assembly is certainly hard, but Batari Basic is quite good at what it does, and very user-friendly. (And actually I think the simpler, older systems are often easier to grok since there's so little abstraction, but that's just me.)

Have you tried posting to AtariAge? They'd gladly help you there.
