As Ada Lovelace is often credited as the first computer programmer (in 1843, by the way) it would seem fair to credit Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine as the first machine for which a programming language was developed.

That said, modern third generation programming languages weren't invented until Grace Murray Hopper designed COBOL in 1959. COBOL was not developed on any machine. It was specified to be machine independent and was simultaneously developed for both IBM and RCA computers in 1960.
