By definition, the first programmer and the language he created was Charles Babbage and the difference engine in 1822.

The first programming language as we know it today ( without movable parts ) would be Short Code, based on John Von Neumann's work, in 1949. This would be followed by FORTRAN ( FORmula TRANslating system ) which was created by IBM in 1957.

I took all of the above from this website. Go check it out for details :
