That is actually a sound. It's used to indicate someone clearing their throat. Sometimes, an author will use it sarcastically, to point out that a character doesn't believe what was just said. Sometimes, it's used by an author to reflect that the character is coughing and is really struggling to speak. And sometimes, it's used to show the person wants someone's attention. "Ahem, excuse me, but you are totally wrong about this!"

The sound your throat makes when clearing it is spelled "ahem."
No, he is an atheist...(ahem stupid ahem) which is sad because he seems pretty cool.
"Ahem" is a representation of a cough, or of a person clearing their throat, or to indicate attention, disapproval, or annoyance.

It's usually spelled as "Ahem." If you're writing dialogue in a story, you can either write it out as "ahem," or simply write that your character cleared his/her throat, depending on the situation within the story.
