Hey, im new in this too, but i found this program by Mark Rippetoe that ive read its very good for beginers to start building strength (its calles "starting strength") and size and its very simple (acording to Rippetoe, the more begginer you are, the more straightforward your training should be).

Workout A
3x5 Squat
3x5 Bench Press
1x5 Deadlift

Workout B
3x5 Squat
3x5 Press
5x3 Power cleans

You work only 3 days a week always with at least 1 day rest between workouts, and you should be adding weight each session.
You can replace the Power cleans with three sets of pull-ups until failure.

Theres even a starting strength wiki, but i cant post links, just google it, there are also variations of the routine and more information there.
