Pharoah didn't punish the Israelites when Moses asked him to let them go. Pharoah refused to let the Israelites go therefore the plagues were sent to Egypt by God.

Which pharaoh was asked to release the Hebrews?

There is no indication of his name in the Bible, but scholars call him Pharoah 128, to presume it was Ramses or anyone else is best left to those who do not answer questions on here. And incidentally, no one, Pharaoh or otherwise, drove Moses out of Egypt. Moses went to Pharaoh and demanded he let Moses and his people go (they were slaves in Egypt, not people Pharaoh would be inclined to drive away since they were his cheap labor force). When Pharaoh would not let Moses and the Israelites go, 10 plagues descended upon Egypt one at a time until finally Pharaoh let Moses and his people leave. Pharaoh quickly changed his mind and chased Moses (to either capture them all or kill them all) to the Red Sea where Moses and his people safely crossed the sea and Pharaoh's men/army were all swallowed up by the sea.
