N00B Needs Help with PHP Questionnaire

I have to create a five question, multiple choice, questionnaire that can save to a database. Once the person has completed the questionnaire, I would like to automatically send some text to the email address the user provided in the questionnaire. I would also like to be able to easily see the data.
Can you please tell me what this is called and/or where I can look to find tutorials on how to create this? Knowing the name will help in Google searches, or when trying to find a script for this that is already created for me.
Thanks for any help!

Do you know any programming?
It might not be so easy if you haven't done anything with PHP and mySQL before.
What I would use as references are:
http://w3schools.com/html/html_forms.asp
http://se.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

I have some php experience, but I am lacking knowledge to connect the data inputted on the html form to the actual database. Any good locations for such a topic?

Well, if you're using mySQL you can look here for the functions you need:

Start by connecting and display some data first.
