If you’re doing old school drawn on paper frame by frame stuff or stop-motion or 2D, I’d suggest MonkeyJam. It’s free.

If you’re on a Mac, use Pencil.

If you want to do Flash animation like the stuff on Newgrounds.com, either use Adobe Flash or Synfig, which is free.

In all these programs you’d be able to import sound clips and animate to it. Good luck!

As for learning how to animate, there’s definitely some basics you need to learn.
